Ben Folami saw the red in Adelaide United’s last official game. We believe his absence will hurt the team’s chances of chipping points away from the champions at Central Coast Stadium this week.

Player to watch: Dylan Pierias

Pierias is probably the most important player for the visitors this season. Since the start of the 2024/25 A-League campaign, he scored twice and supplied a teammate with an assist. He must be a starter for coach Veart if the manager wants to keep his chances alive.

Second player to watch: Sabit Ngor

Ngor’s presence on the pitch will be of huge help to our top Central Coast Mariners vs Adelaide United predictions, as the winger already opened his score tab for the home side this season.
