It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Wanderers and Melbourne Victory.

These teams have little in common geographically as Melbourne Victory have to travel 800 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Melbourne Victory form and stats

The A-League season is young and Melbourne Victory, who have the fewest scored goals (5) in A-League, have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far.

Melbourne Victory play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 2-5 to Brisbane Roar (placed 2nd).

As you can tell from the result, the match against Brisbane Roar was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

We have checked recent matches where Melbourne Victory have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eight games were one victory, zero draws and seven defeats.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Melbourne manager G. Brebner as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Perth Glory.

The attacking power of Melbourne Victory when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. For Melbourne, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Wanderers two wins, three draws and Melbourne Victory five victories. As for goals, six matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four games had two or less.
