Running Results:
  • -3 units

Brisbane Roar v Melbourne City – Tuesday 7:05pm (AEDT)

This game can go either way and the odds prove that Brisbane is priced at $3.05 and Melbourne is $2.26. With the late shuffle of the fixture list, this game is bound to lack quality defence but as both teams look to impress on their season opener be sure to see plenty of chances at goals.

  • 0.5 unit over 3.5 goals 2.95 with TopSport

Western Sydney Wanderers vs Macarthur FC – Wednesday 7:10pm (AEDT)

The Wanderers have boosted their squad with a number of key players from rival clubs, they have struggled over the past few seasons so it is paramount they change their fortunes this season. It may take some time to see if these players will truly make an impact. On the contrary, this is Macarthur FC’s debut in the A-League, so this is a tricky game and the experience of Western Sydney should see them get over the line.

  • 1 unit Western Sydney Wanderers 2.29 with TopSport


Central Coast Mariners vs Newcastle Jets – Thursday 7:05pm (AEDT)

The F3 derby seems to be a lackluster one this season with many tipping either club to finish near the bottom. The draw seems to be the best option for this game, with many questions needing to be answered early in the season for both clubs.

  • 0.5 unit draw 3.50 with TopSport
  • 1 unit over 2.5 goals 1.75 with TopSport
