Struggling Wellington Phoenix will be hoping to improve on their latest performances and edge closer to play-off berths when they host A-League leaders Melbourne Victory at the QBE Stadium on Saturday evening.
The Phoenix have been quite inconsistent in the opening exchanges, taking just 11 points from 8 games, but at least they have no selection problems to worry about, with Ben Sigmund returning from injury and Kwabena Appiah promoted to the squad.
However, it is their opponents who head into the clash as 11/10 favourites to emerge victorious, which is hardly surprising considering they sit at the A-League summit after recording four victories on the bounce.
Melbourne Victory scored seven goals in last two away matches, and even with Carl Valeri (illness), Scott Galloway (suspension), Nick Ansell and Archie Thompson (both injury) unavailable, they look a good bet to win this game.
If you decide to take the bet at bet365, you will not only receive a 100% Opening Bonus, but also have access to free live stream of the match, provided you have funds in your account.
