Heading into today’s Adelaide United vs Sydney FC betting tips, the home side have only won two of their seven league matches, collecting only eight of the available twenty-one points on offer. The most surprising facet of their below average start to the season has been their form at Coopers Stadium, where the Reds have failed to win any of their three A-League fixtures so far.

The current champions and league-leading visitors have picked up where they left off last season, winning five of their opening seven league matches. The Sky Blues already have the best defensive record in the division. During the 2016/17 campaign, they allowed the opposition to score against them just twelve times in twenty-seven first stage fixtures. Having conceded seven already this time around, it will take a miracle for them to emulate their incredible numbers from last year.

Adelaide United vs Sydney FC Prediction and Betting Advice

Revenge may be on the agenda of the home team analysed in today’s free selection Adelaide United vs Sydney FC bets. Losing a cup final in extra time is a real bitter pill to swallow, but the result meant that the Reds had lost to the Sky blues in 100% of their last three meetings.

United have had been miserable at the Coopers Stadium since the domestic league season got underway, losing there to Melbourne City and Newcastle Jets, while also being held 2-2 by Melbourne Victory. The Reds won just four from fourteen in front of their own supporters in the 2016/17 season, which played a large factor in their poor league finish (9^th).

Graham Arnold’s seasoned winners lost just once on their travels last season and have won two of their three away fixtures so far this term too. They hold a psychological advantage over their opponents having dashed their dreams in the Cup Final and we’re backing them to heap the misery on Adelaide again this time. Sportingbet’s A-League soccer odds beat the competition for value, so we recommend you stick with them when using our opening tip.

The home team involved in this week’s Adelaide United vs Sydney FC predictions may be functioning poorly overall as a collective unit, but despite their problems, they have a handy knack of finding the back of the net. It might surprise you to learn that the Reds have only failed to score in two of their last twelve fixtures in all competitions.

Their opponent’s defensive strengths have been well documented, but they have shown a newfound frailty in that area this season so far. They have only kept three clean sheets in their last eight, which might not seem like the worst record in the world, but it’s night and day when compared to the rock-solid displays in defence of 2016/17.

Marco Kurz’ players might find it a bridge too far to actually take the points or even a point from the title favourites, but scoring a goal certainly isn’t beyond them. We dug out some excellent odds to use with our free Australian football tips over at Winner. They are the stand out choice from the available bookies this time.
