Melbourne City Preview – Can Melbourne City confirm 2nd place?
With two matches of the A-League season remaining for Tuesday evening’s hosts, Melbourne City, the hosts currently sit in 2nd place behind leaders, Sydney FC, but there’s just two points separating them from 3rd placed Wellington Phoenix, so this upcoming clash against Adelaide United in Sydney could be pivotal.
Melbourne City have coped fairly well to the pressure of maintaining their top two spot as Erick Mombaerts’s side have suffered just one defeat out of their last six matches which came in the shape of a 2-1 defeat away at Newcastle Jets but four wins within these six matches should give City confidence here.
Recent wins against Brisbane Roar, Perth Glory, Central Coast Mariners and most importantly, a 2-0 win over Sydney FC should see a confident Melbourne City outfit here as they look to keep destiny in their own hands with a win over Adelaide United.
Adelaide United Preview – Can Adelaide secure top six finish?
Tuesday’s visitors, Adelaide United, bring a four-match unbeaten run in the A-League into this upcoming clash against Melbourne City thanks to wins over Brisbane Roar and Perth Glory along with points picked up in draws with Wellington Phoenix and Sydney FC.
Adelaide United currently occupy 6th place on the A-League ladder but they have Western United breathing down their necks with just two points between the two teams and Wester United have a game in hand too, so this clash against Melbourne City is also an extremely important one for Adelaide United as well.
However, this is effectively an away game for Adelaide United and recent results on the road have been fairly disappointing as the visitors have picked up just one win from their last five matches on the road, while losing three at Brisbane Roar, Western Sydney Wanderers and Melbourne Victory within this period.
