SYD vs CCM Match Prediction

Reigning champions Sydney FC have started off the season well and consist of a formidable squad with the aim to defend their title this time around. The hosts will look to extend their unbeaten record but face tough competition in the form of the Central Coast Mariners. The visitors themselves are in contention to fight for the A-league title and will be looking for their third win of the season. We predict a narrow win for the hosts as they are likely to walk away as winners at the end of the 90 minutes. 

Prediction: Sydney FC 2-1 Central Coast Mariners
