It’s a brave punter who takes on the A-League this season!

The form says there’s only one team you should be backing when Melbourne Victory host Adelaide United…but form doesn’t count for much in the A-League.

Victory is undefeated across the opening nine games, but their inability to convert on the chances they create in most games has cost them valuable points this season and top spot.

With the pinnacle of the A-League still within Victory’s reach, motivation should not be an issue for Tony Popovic’s men. Still, equally, Carl Veart will be eager to see his Adelaide United team – featuring livewire Nestory Irankunda – upset the New Year’s party at AAMI Park.

Gamble responsibly and remember to enjoy the game, not the odds.
