Melbourne Victory vs Western United Predictions for This A-League Match

One of the most successful Aussie teams is going up against an in-form Western United. Who’ll emerge victoriously on the 13th of March? Find out the answer with the help of Football Whispers’ expert Melbourne Victory vs Western United predictions!

Over 2.5 Goals

Six of the last 10 matches between the two clubs ended with over 2.5 goals and we’re confident that the one on Monday will as well! After all, with 35 goals conceded since the start of the season, Western United have the worst defensive record in the league. The only other side that comes even remotely close to those numbers is Macarthur who conceded 34.

Melbourne Victory to Win

Our second Melbourne Victory vs Western United prediction anticipates a home win on the 13th of March. First of all, coach John Aloisi has a very poor 8-5-11 record against Melbourne Victory and that’ll undoubtedly hurt his side’s chances to win on Monday. Furthermore, Melbourne Victory are bound to get rid of their bad luck, and what better opportunity to do so than a match in front of the home crowd?

Draw odds: 11/4 (3.75) – 26.0%

It’s a rare occasion to see the bookies give the same probability for a draw or for one of the teams to win. Yet, that’s the case in this match as a draw and a Western United win are valued the same – 11/4 (3.75) while the home team has a 48.0% chance to win at 19/20 (1.95).

Predicted Lineups, Team News, and Last Result

Melbourne Victory

Sydney’s sneaky 1-0 win over Melbourne Victory was the unfairest result we’ve seen recently. With only two shots at target and only one shot on target, Sydney took the three points for themselves leaving Melbourne Victory shell-shocked. Coach Anthony Popovic’s boys were by far the better of the two teams on the pitch and it’s no wonder we favor them for this Melbourne Victory vs Western United prediction.

Predicted lineup – Izzo (GK), Cadete, Roderick, Da Silva, Geria, Velupillay, Brillante, Chapman, Folami, Oikonomidis & Fornaroli

Western United

Two quick-fire goals by Melbourne Victory on the stroke of halftime proved decisive in the Perth Glory match a couple of days ago as coach John Aloisi kept the three points in his pocket. Now, his boys will have to deal with Melbourne Victory who, historically speaking, have always been a tough nut to crack. Currently, in 9th place, Melbourne Victory have a record that they can’t be proud of and we expect them to at least try to get something out of their visit on Monday.

Predicted lineup – Young (GK), Risdon, Imai, Lacroix, Garuccio, Doumbia, Kilkenny, Wales, Troisi, Pain & Botic

Player to Watch: Joshua Brillante

As we mentioned previously in our Melbourne Victory vs Western United predictions, coach Anthony Popovic has a lot of issues when it comes to his creative players. Nani and Jake Brimmer are his top players up front but both of them are out of the game on Monday due to injuries. However, Joshua Brillante will be in the starting XI, and even as a defensive midfielder, he’s been putting on one hell of a show in the attack. With three goals and two assists since the start of the season, Joshua Brillante is one of the key Melbourne Victory players and certainly the one to watch on the 13th of March.
