In their last match Adelaide United enforced their superiority over Central Coast Mariners with a 3-0 home win.  During that encounter they had 61% possession and had 22 attempts on goal with 13 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 24 shots on goal.  

Whilst manager Carl Veart will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 12 goals conceded in the same period.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 1 clean sheet in those games.  

It's been a mixed run of form for Adelaide Utd recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.

Melbourne City will not be too troubled by their 2-1 home defeat against Western United, given the latter currently sit 14 places further up the league table than they do.  They achieved 62% possession in that match and had 16 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Western United's tally of 16 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.  

With 14 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, their manager Rado Vidošić will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 8 goals in the same period.  Their goal scoring now stands at 15 games in a row, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 15 games.  

They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.  

In front of goal, Jamie Maclaren has shown an impressive run of form over the last 6 league matches, managing to find the back of the net no less than 6 times in that run of games.
