Adelaide United vs Melbourne Victory Prediction and Betting Tips | January 18th 2025

The action continues in round 15 of the A-League as Adelaide United and Melbourne Victory square off at the Hindmarsh Stadium on Saturday. Carl Veart’s men head into the weekend on a three-game winning streak against the visitors and are unbeaten in their last six clashes since a 3-0 loss in November 2022.

Adelaide United maintained their fine run of results as they secured a 2-1 victory over Wellington Phoenix at the Wellington Regional Stadium last Saturday.

Veart’s men have gone unbeaten in 10 of their 11 league matches — claiming seven wins and three draws — with a narrow 3-2 loss against Western Sydney Wanderers on December 27 being the exception.

With 24 points from 11 games, Adelaide United are currently second in the A-League standings, level on points with first-placed Melbourne City, albeit with one game in hand.

Elsewhere, Melbourne Victory were left disappointed last time out as they suffered a 4-3 defeat against Western United after conceding twice in stoppage time.

Arthur Diles’ men have failed to win their last five matches, losing twice and claiming three draws since claiming back-to-back victories over Western United and Perth Glory back in December.

With 19 points from 12 matches, Melbourne Victory are seventh in the A-League table but could move into fourth place with all three points this weekend.
