Macarthur vs Western Sydney Wanderers Prediction and Betting Tips | April 8th 2023

Macarthur will welcome Western Sydney Wanderers to the Campbelltown Sports Stadium in the A-League on Saturday.

The hosts are winless in their last three league games and suffered their second defeat in that period last week. They took the lead in the first half via Lachlan Rose but Perth Glory scored twice in the second half to inflict a 2-1 defeat.

Western Sydney Wanderers also suffered their second loss in three league games last time around as they fell to a 2-3 home defeat against Adelaide United in a crucial top-four clash. Their failure to record a win saw them drop to fourth place in the league table.

Macarthur vs Western Sydney Wanderers Prediction

The Bulls have just one win to their name in their last six games. Their record at home is impressive, suffering one defeat in five games. They have never suffered a defeat at home against the visitors and are expected to produce a strong performance.

The Wanderers have just one win in their travels since November but have scored 10 goals in their last four away games. Though they have recorded back-to-back 4-0 wins against their southern rivals they are winless at Saturday's venue. With that in mind, we expect the two teams to settle for a draw.
