In a clash between two teams from the lower end of the A-League table, Melbourne Victory will entertain Sydney FC at the Melbourne Rectangular Stadium on Thursday. The hosts are winless in their last five league games and suffered a 3-1 defeat against Perth Glory on Saturday as they remained in last place in the league table.
They have one game in hand over the visitors and if they can secure a win in this game, they will climb up to 10th place in the league table. Sydney FC are winless in their last three games and fell to a 1-0 loss against Western United last time around. They fell just short of securing a point from the game as substitute Alessandro Diamanti scored the winning goal for Western in the 86th minute.
Both teams have struggled for form in their recent games, with the hosts failing to score in two of their last five games and Sydney failing to find the back of the net in three of their last five games. Both teams have picked up just one win in their last six games and might struggle here.
The last six meetings between the two teams at Thursday’s venue have produced over 2.5 goals and we expect this game to end in a high-scoring draw as well.
