Bitesize Prediction: Adelaide United vs Western Sydney Wanderers – 16/03/22

Competition: A-League

Market: Adelaide United win

Odds: 8/7 @ 888sport

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the A-League table, Adelaide will host the Western Sydney Wanderers on Wednesday morning.

Starting with the hosts, managing to snatch a late winner at home against Newcastle a few days ago, it appears that Adelaide are enjoying a welcomed A-League purple patch. Eventually claiming a 2-1 victory at home against the Newcastle Jets, Head Coach Carl Veart once again finds his side battling it out at the top of the table. Gaining plenty of plaudits from across Australia since opening up the 2022 campaign, the Reds should be smelling a golden chance on Wednesday morning. In fact, along with winning each of their last three matchups on the spin, including a 2-1 win against former champions Perth Glory, Adelaide have collected 12 points from their last five A-League outings. Likewise, it should also be highlighted that the midweek hosts have collected back-to-back 2-1 wins at Coopers Stadium.

As for the visitors, making an immediate return to losing ways over the weekend with a 3-1 drumming away at Macarthur, it is fair to say that Western Sydney find themselves in the midst of a real struggle. With it looking like their shock 2-0 win against heavyweights Sydney earlier in the month was just a minor boost, Head Coach Mark Rudan has seen his side lose three of their last four A-League outings. Knowing that they face a tough task away at Coopers Stadium on Wednesday morning, the Wanderers have gained a reputation for their continued problems on the road. Including four straight defeats outside of Sydney, it should also be highlighted that the midweek guests have remarkably collected just a single point away from the CommBank Stadium since way back on December 3rd.
