On Wednesday (23rd), Melbourne Victory hosts Western Union in the first match of the Australian League. Melbourne Victory has been stabilizing their performance since the beginning of the season. On the other hand, the front-runners, Western Union, have suffered a big defeat and their morale is damaged, so this game will give their opponents an opportunity to take advantage of them, so a home win is a good bet. (Live on myTV SUPER Wednesday at 4:05pm)
Western United lost 0-3 to FC Sydney in their last game, losing two consecutive games and missing the chance to move up to the top of the table. The team's defense is not bad this season, only conceding 17 goals in 17 matches, which is the fewest goals conceded in the A-League, but they have conceded 5 goals in the last two matches, which may lead to a confidence crisis in the defense, and the team's assist leader, the former Italian international Diavendi, is still recovering from an injury, which will weaken the attacking force further.
Ricardia Gostinos Dare
Victory lost in overtime to Kobe Satsuma in the AFC Champions League final but returned to league action with a 1-1 draw against regular season and playoff champions Melbourne City. Top scorer Ricardo Gostino has been on a roll lately, with five goals and an assist in his last four matches in all competitions, and will be looking to get his team back on the winning track this time around. Melbourne Victory's last 5 home games have resulted in 4 wins and 1 loss, plus a double win over their rivals this season, so it's worth chasing a home win.
