Macarthur FC vs Western United Preview & Prediction

Macarthur will be searching for back-to-back wins in the A-League when they come up against Western United on Saturday in Campbelltown.

After suffering a disappointing 3-0 loss to Phom Penh Crown in the AFC Cup last week, Macarthur bounced back superbly just two days later to conquer reigning premiers Central Coast 2-1 on the road.

French striker Valere Germain scored his first goal for the club as Macarthur claimed all three points to remain unbeaten in the A-League after two games.

Unbeaten in seven of their last nine home games in all competitions, Macarthur will be confident of registering a positive result against Western, who they have also never lost against in Campbelltown.

Western started the season with a bang, overcoming Melbourne City 2-1 – however, that result might not be as impressive as initially thought.

City went on to lose 6-0 against Adelaide last week and Western needed a penalty to edge them out. Western also suffered a crushing loss last week, going down 5-0 to the Wanderers on the road, with all five goals coming in the first half.

VERDICT:

All things considered, looks like a great chance for Macarthur to extend their unbeaten start after Western were demolished last week and have never beaten the hosts in Campbelltown in their history.

Macarthur should be able to at the very least earn a point, but our best bet will be Over 2.5 goals, which has landed in eight of the last 10 games for both sides in all competitions and five of the seven previous meetings between the teams (Best Over 2.5 goals odds $1.53 with bet365.)
