Perth Glory Melbourne City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This should be a very disputed confrontation between two of the best teams in Australian football at the moment and that feed the dream of the title. At home, Perth Glory should try to dominate the game, looking to win and stick to the opponent in the league table, but will find a Melbourne City who likes to play with possession and looking for the opposing goal. Thus, we expect a divided game and with several occasions of goal in the general plan.
