Sydney FC vs Adelaide United Verdict


Goals are expected when the Sky Blues and Reds meet in the second round of the A-League. BTTS yes is the best bet having landed in the last 15 meetings between the teams. 
  • BTTS - Yes has landed in the last 15 meetings between the teams
  • BTTS - Yes has landed in nine of Adelaide's last 10 A-League games
  • Adelaide have only won two of their last 14 away games vs Sydney
  • Sydney have won two of their last three home games vs Adelaide
  • Rhys Youlley had two shots last week vs Wanderers & 2+ in five of his opening eight games of last season
  • Three of the last six games between the teams have resulted in a 2-1 score

Head To Head

This will be the 65th meeting between the teams. Sydney hold a 28-22 advantage, along with 14 draws.

They've split the last four meetings at two wins apiece, with the Reds prevailing in the last two.

Sydney FC Form

It was a shocking derby last week to open the season in front of over 30,000 fans.

Nobody could take control and the ball spent the majority of the game either in the air or being banged over the sideline. Aerial ping pong as Sydney ultimately settled for a 0-0 draw and an opening point.

New signing James Overy had a brilliant chance to win the game on debut after being put through on goal by Akol Akon, but he was thwarted by Wanderers' keeper Lawrence Thomas.

The Sky Blues only had one shot on target for the entire game. Thiago Quintal was particularly wasteful and will want an improved performance here. 

Adelaide United Form

It's been a long wait for Adelaide to finally start their A-League season after their Round 1 was postponed due to the club's ACL 2 commitments.

The Reds have made a winning start to the AFC Champions League 2, toppling Tai Po 3-1 and Pathum United 2-1 to top their group after two matches.

It was a successful season for Adelaide last term as they finished in second spot on the ladder, but ultimately they were condemned to another semi-final elimination.

The Reds also bombed out of the Australia Cup at the first hurdle to eventual champions South Melbourne.

Verdict

Sydney are backed for all three points at home, with both teams finding the back of the net.
