A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : Australia : A-League
Venue : Coopers Stadium
Friday 20th January 2023, 1915hrs
There’s action from Down Under on Friday evening in the Australian domestic A-League as Adelaide United welcome Macarthur Rams to their Coopers Stadium with both teams looking to further cement their place in the top six of the division.
Having managed to win just once in their last six matches overall in the A-League, Adelaide United will certainly relish the prospect of returning to home soil for this clash especially as the hosts have played seven of their 12 matches in total to date away from home.
Adelaide’s one win during this recent period came in the form of a 2-0 home win over Perth Glory and indeed their home surroundings look to give Adelaide the best chance of success here in this upcoming encounter as the hosts have lost just one of their last 11 home games.
Within this impressive sequence, Adelaide United have also captured eight wins in the process which includes a 1-0 victory over Macarthur back in April of last season.
Macarthur Rams sit one league position and one point above their hosts ahead of this Friday night clash in the A-League but recent results have seen the visitors post a mixed bag of results, losing two out of their last three games while winning just five of their last 16 games overall.
Of these five league wins, three of these victories have been gained on home soil at their Campbelltown Stadium while results away from home have yielded a very disappointing two wins from their last 13 outings on the road.
Wins at Central Coast Mariners and Sydney FC have been overshadowed by seven defeats on their travels and with just two clean sheets in the process, Macarthur look to have their work cut out here.
The Betting Verdict
Home advantage has certainly been favourable in previous exchanges between these two teams and Adelaide United have won the previous two home meetings against Macarthur and perhaps look the more likely for the three points in this clash too.
The Pick :
Adelaide Utd 2-1 Macarthur Rams
