ADELAIDE UNITED VS WESTERN UNITED PREDICTION
Adelaide United started the season with an entertaining 1-1 draw at home to last season’s regular season winners Central Coast Mariners before then enjoying an entertaining 4-3 victory against Western Sydney Wanderers in their most recent outing, last weekend. They now face a Western United side that have collected two points from their last three matches and most recently lost at home to Melbourne City by a goal to nil. Given their difficult start and Adelaide’s home advantage, backing a home win looks the way to go for this one.
