Adelaide United vs Western Sydney Wanderers

, KO: 10:35 Jun 3, 2021, Coopers Stadium
Western Sydney Wanderers

Adelaide United will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing defeat as they host Western Sydney Wanderers in an A-League fixture at Coopers Stadium. Neither team has been convincing in recent weeks but Western Sydney’s poor away form means Adelaide should have the edge here.

Adelaide United suffered a 4-1 home defeat to Sydney FC in their previous A-League fixture. They played much of the second half with 10 men after Jordan Elsey was sent off before Yaya Dukuly got a consolation one minute from time.

It was the first defeat in nine home matches for Adelaide, and one which manager Carl Veart will be keen to move on from as they seek a playoff finish. They are fourth on the table and will confirm their spot in the final series with a win on Thursday.

Adelaide United take a lot of pride in their home form and will hope to end the regular season with a win on their own turf. They have claimed some key victories at Coopers Stadium, knocking off Macarthur 3-1 while also beating Brisbane Roar 1-0.

Goals from Bernie Ibini-Isei and Bruce Kamau helped Western Sydney Wanderers claim a 2-0 victory over Brisbane Roar last time out in the A-League. They rode their luck a few times with goalkeeper Daniel Margush denying Brisbane on a number of occasions.

It was a much-needed win for Carl Robinson’s men as it ended a run of three straight defeats. It also maintains their slim hopes of making the playoff as they sit two points behind Macarthur in sixth place.

Western Sydney have struggled on their recent travels and head to Coopers Stadium winless in their last six matches. They have lost the last three in that run, including a 5-1 defeat to Perth Glory while they were also beaten 5-4 by Melbourne Victory.

How the bookies view it

The bookies have installed Adelaide United as favourites with Unibet offering 27/25 for a home win. A victory for Western Sydney Wanderers is valued at 13/5 by betway while a draw is set at odds of 37/13 with SBK.

Given Western Sydney Wanderers’ poor form on the road, I am backing Adelaide United to claim the win here.
