THE Prediction
Both teams have scored in six games last seven Melbourne City.
Both teams have scored in three previous meetings between the Melbourne City and the West of England.
Melbourne City and the West of England has an average of 1.88 and 1.77 goals per game each season.
Melbourne City ended the regular season with a 3-1 thumping of West United last week, and now they will be looking to do the same thing again as both sides compete for ever A-League appearance of their first Grand Final.
City, who finished as runner-up in the regular campaign, comes to have won five of eight past them and, while they did beat Western United last time, they have to be on their toes against a team who have won seven of their last nine and make six in their first season in the A-League.
As if often the case in the A-League, a goal that is expected to flow freely on Wednesday. Melbourne City finished as top scorers together at the table but conceded 37 in 26 matches. Western United equaled the record's poor defense and only scored three goals fewer than Sydney FC and Melbourne City.
Both teams have scored in six of the last seven matches Melbourne City and in each of their three previous meetings with Western England that support seemed a solid choice for Wednesday morning.
It's hard to pick a winner from this side fairly balanced, and the stalemate looks the most likely outcome. Melbourne City drew 2-2 against Adelaide United earlier this month and with the team average of 1.88 and 1.77 goals per game each, 2-2 correct score prediction is our choice.
