Western United will look to bounce back to winning ways when they welcome Central Coast Mariners to the GMHBA Stadium on Saturday.
The visitors will aim to remain in first place by the end of the game week, as their lead at the top of the table has been reduced to just one point after a poor run of results in recent weeks.
We say: Western United 1-2 Central Coast Mariners
With both sides evenly matched in form coming into this one, we predict a close and entertaining contest. Central Coast Mariners have stumbled in recent weeks, but we fancy them to grab all three points on Saturday.

Melbourne City vs. Victory (Saturday, 10.10am)

Two teams at opposite ends of the table square off as Melbourne City take on Melbourne Victory at AAMI Park on Saturday.
The Melbourne derby is one of the most heated rivalries in the Australian top-flight and each side will aim to claim the win, alongside local bragging rights when they trade tackles on Saturday.
We say: Melbourne City 3-1 Melbourne Victory
Melbourne Victory fell to a 6-0 thumping at the hand of the hosts a little over a month ago, and they will need their A-game to prevent another defeat in this fixture.
However, considering Melbourne City boasts a better squad and are currently the more in-form side, we predict they grab all three points fairly comfortably.
