Saturday's Australian A-League predictions including Melbourne City vs. Macarthur

Melbourne City vs. Macarthur (Saturday, 6.00am)

Macarthur will be hoping to end their three-match run without a victory on Saturday, but they face a difficult test as they travel to Melbourne Rectangular Stadium as they face Melbourne City.

The current A-League leaders have lost just once throughout this season, but they are also without a win in their previous three outings.

We say: Melbourne City 2-0 Macarthur

Melbourne City might be without a win in their previous three matches, but competing against another team in poor form recently could be the ideal way to change that.

Considering the fact that the league leaders are undefeated at home, this should result in three points for them.

Sydney FC vs. Central Coast (Saturday, 6.00am)

After bringing an end to a three-game run without a win Sydney FC will be heading into Saturday's fixture against Central Coast Mariners with no shortage of confidence.

While the visitors sit six places above their opponents in the A-League table, they have now gone two consecutive matches without three points.

We say: Sydney FC 1-1 Central Coast Mariners

When looking at the league table Central Coast Mariners seem like the obvious favourites, but their recent form and mixed performances away from home could make this a tricky test for them.

Sydney FC will look to take advantage of that, and with some momentum from last weekend they could end up earning a point here.

Adelaide United vs. Brisbane Roar (Saturday, 8.45am)

After holding the A-League leaders Melbourne City to a draw last weekend, Adelaide United will be aiming to continue their momentum when hosting Brisbane Roar on Saturday.

On the other hand, the visitors are desperate to get back to winning ways after four consecutive matches without one.

We say: Adelaide United 1-0 Brisbane Roar

Brisbane Roar have proven themselves to be difficult to break down this season, and because of that, this is likely going to be a low-scoring game.

However, because the visitors are also struggling to score themselves, Adelaide United should be able to take three points in this match.

Perth Glory vs. Newcastle Jets (Saturday, 11.30am)

Heading into Saturday's fixture with a five-game undefeated streak Perth Glory should have no shortage of confidence when they host Newcastle Jets.

However, the visitors picked up a dominant 4-0 win during their most recent outing, giving them the chance to climb as high as fifth this weekend in the A-League.

We say: Perth Glory 1-2 Newcastle Jets

These are two teams that are playing with a lot of confidence at the moment, which should lead to a thrilling back-and-forth fixture.

However, the visitors have been showcasing great attacking qualities throughout this season which should give them a slight edge here.
