Sydney FC U23 vs APIA Leichhardt tips and predictions

Sydney FC U23 worthy of debate

This is a match destined for at least a few goals so this could be entertaining. But that doesn't mean there's anything exciting about the prices.

APIA Leichhardt are the clear favourites in the betting but they are just too short.

A look at the respective results for each side; the hosts have got 5 wins behind them from their last 8 home games. On a less impressive run than they'd have wanted, the visitors have been defeated in 1 of their last 3 matches. For a team so short in the betting, perhaps they'd be expected to have done better than this.

Sydney FC U23 are going to have to produce something out of this world. While probably not enough to change the result of the match, the hosts have posted some good numbers. They have looked determined. Their recent 13 matches have seen them averaging an impressive 3.5 goals per game and that's been backed up from one to eleven. At the back they have kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 7 home games.

APIA Leichhardt have had a few wobbles on the road; they've conceded at least once in 18 of their last 20 away matches. They will be confident that they won't be adding to those stats though. After all, they are the jolly for a reason.

The sportsbooks are predicting both sides to get in on the act despite the massive favouritism for APIA Leichhardt. However, the odds-against for the BTTS No is slightly more attractive this time around.
