Bitesize Prediction: Sydney FC vs Macarthur – 30/03/22

Competition: A-League

Market: Sydney FC win

Odds: 8/11 @ 888sport

Desperate to make an immediate return to winning ways on Wednesday morning, Sydney will welcome Macarthur to the Jubilee Oval.

Starting with the hosts, suffering what would have been a worrying 2-0 defeat away at Newcastle over the weekend, Sydney will know that they need an immediate response here. Despite struggling with their consistency this season, the A-League giants did show some real signs of improvement earlier in the month. Along with securing back-to-back 3-0 and 2-0 victories against Perth and Western United, Steve Corica’s men also stormed their way to a 5-0 romp against Kaya on AFC Champions League duties. Hoping to prove that their defeat against the Jets a few days ago was just a minor blip, Sydney should be boosted by their most recent meeting against Wednesday’s opponents. It should be noted, when the two sides faced off back on Boxing Day, Corica’s side picked up a thumping 3-0 win.

As for the visitors, also seen over the weekend putting in another flat display, it appears that Macarthur find themselves in the midst of a real struggle. Freefalling their way down the A-League table, the Bulls have lost four of their last five outings and have just a single victory to their name since February 23rd. With their recent issues highlighted by back-to-back 3-1 drummings against Melbourne City and Melbourne Victory earlier in the month, Wednesday’s guests will know that they face a tough test at the Jubilee Oval here. Suffering that routine 3-0 defeat when they welcomed Sydney to New South Wales back on Boxing Day, Macarthur also saw the Blues end their FFA Cup adventure on December 8th. Losing each of their last three A-League away fixtures by an aggregate score of 10-4, we’re backing a similar home victory here.
