MLC vs ADL Dream11: Melbourne City continued their excellent run of form as they edged in-form Brisbane Roar in a highly entertaining affair at the weekend. That was their third win in succession while it was also the third time in a row that they scored three goals. City are also unbeaten in seven and they have won 11 of their last 14 which leaves Adelaide United with a daunting task ahead of them in this clash. The away side have failed to win any of their last four and while only one of those matches has ended in defeat, the gulf in class should be evident here with the hosts able to claim yet another victory.

Likely Winner:
Melbourne City should have enough quality with the likes of Noone and Maclaren to stop the visitors recording a third straight clean sheet, while Adelaide’s front line has looked particularly toothless recently, which does not bode well as they come up against another of the league’s stronger back lines. In our MLC vs ADL Today Match Prediction odds, we back for a 2-0 win for the hosts in this match.
