Melbourne Knights vs Oakleigh Cannons tips and predictions

Visitors odds don't appeal

A result here could be within Melbourne Knights's capabilities.

The hosts come into the match having put 9 wins in the bag from their last 19 games.

While not necessarily enough to upset the odds Melbourne Knights have shown some form. Does the home side look confident on their own patch? They have scored two or more goals in 10 of their recent 13 home matches and their determination has been evident all over the field. At the back they have conceded no more than once in all of their last 3 games.

Away from home Oakleigh Cannons have actually conceded at least once in all of their last 7 matches. And the home side's defenders will be looking for evidence that this might not be one-way traffic. Their fans can find reasons to believe. In front of goal, the visitors have seemed hesitant. They've scored one or less goals in all of their last 3 away matches.

It's not a hugely confident prediction and the hosts may feel they've exceeded expectations if they end up in deadlock. Most previews are saying that neither side will keep a clean sheet during this match despite the favouritism for Oakleigh Cannons. It's not a strong view but the odds-against for the BTTS No looks more tempting on this occasion.
