Central Coast Mariners will be keen to return to winning ways when they play host to Brisbane Roar at their Central Coast Stadium on Wednesday night as the hosts have managed to pick up just one win out of their last seven matches overall.
Nevertheless, Central Coast still remain in contention for a possible top two finish as they sit in 3rd place, level on points with 2nd placed Sydney FC and just a point behind the A-League leaders, Melbourne City, prior to this midweek clash.
Although the wins have dried up in recent times, the hosts have lost just twice during this period, both of which were losses on the road at Melbourne City and Western United respectively, while results at home continue to be consistent.
Central Coast Mariners are unbeaten in their last seven matches on home soil amidst an overall record of 5-3-2 17/13 and includes notable wins against Melbourne City and Adelaide United.
Brisbane Roar will be aiming to collect a third away win on the trot in the A-League when they make their way down to the Central Coast for this midweek clash at the Central Coast Stadium having registered recent wins at Macarthur FC and Western Sydney Wanderers.
However, these two victories have been Brisbane Roar’s only highlights in recent times as the visitors have won just two of their last 10 matches overall and they haven’t played Central Coast Mariners at all so far this season.
Results away from home have been up and down for Brisbane but although their away record of 4-2-2 11/9 looks reasonable enough, the visitors have managed only one away win at a top six side to date this term (2-1 at Macarthur FC).
The Betting Verdict
Central Coast Mariners have been compact at home and hard to beat and they should at least avoid defeat here, if not nick a narrow win.
The Pick :
Central Coast Mariners 1-0 Brisbane Roar
