Western United vs Adelaide United Prediction
Western United come into this one on the back of a 2-2 draw with Macarthur in their most recent outing last weekend in a game in which they went ahead twice. They have been entertaining to watch throughout the campaign with their 17 matches consisting of 56 goals thus far. They now take on an Adelaide United side whereby only Sydney have scored more than them in the A League as they try and keep on the coattails of league leaders Auckland. The South Australians were beaten 2-1 by Newcastle Jets last week and have now managed just one win in their last four matches. Both teams scoring would appear a good bet for this one between two attacking sides.
