Additional Betting Tips

After thorough analysis of the past data, our team of experts has come up with additional predictions for the match.

Keep in mind that the prediction on the top of the page is our main tip. In case you are looking for more value picks, you can use our additional predictions below.

👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

We expect that corners will be hard to come by in the Sydney vs Wellington Phoenix match. Neither team has been able to create too many corner opportunities this season with how they have played, and this figures to be another match with a low corner count.

So for this match, we recommend betting on under 9.5 corners, where 9 total corners or fewer between the two teams will win the bet.

👉 Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match

If you're expecting Sydney vs Wellington Phoenix to be a goal fest, think again.

We predict the total to remain under 2.5 goals in this match as neither side figures to have enough attacking firepower to give the opposition's defence much trouble.
