Bitesize Prediction: Wellington Phoenix vs Brisbane Roar – 06/02/25
Competition: A-League
Market: Wellington Phoenix draw no bet
Odds: 8/11 @ Pribet
Two camps who are seeking some crucial stability, Wellington will welcome Brisbane to the Sky Stadium in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Starting with the hosts, while Wellington might have secured a much-welcomed 2-1 victory away at Macarthur on January 20th, the Phoenix have come crashing back down to earth since their bright start to proceedings. Despite suffering just a single defeat from any of their first five A-League appearances, Giancarlo Italiano’s side have a real battle on their hands in the race to book a play-off ticket in 2025. Despite claiming a silver medal finish last season, Wellington have recorded just a sole win from their five five matchups since opening the New Year. However, although Thursday’s hosts might have secured consecutive A-League wins on just a single occasion so far this season, Italiano’s camp will be excited by a dominant record against Brisbane. Landing a 1-0 victory when they last met the Lions back in March 2024, they are unbeaten in each of their previous six consecutive meetings. Likewise, Wellington have lost just one of their last 11 showdowns – a run that stems all the way back to January 2020.
As for the visitors, making an immediate return to losing ways last week as they slumped to a 1-0 loss at home against Western Sydney, Brisbane find themselves at the heart of yet another A-League crisis. In fact, sat rock-bottom of the table, the Lions have remarkably collected just five points from any of their 14 appearances so far this season. Breaking a string of unwanted records this season, Ruben Zadkovich’s side have lost six of their previous seven A-League appearances. Getting the New Year underway with a 3-1 drumming against Central Coast, it is no surprise that Brisbane are pencilled in as a landslide contender to lift the wooden spoon in 2025. Landing just a single A-League victory so far this season, the Queensland-based outfit should have another tough test on their hands here. Winning just one of their last 11 consecutive showdowns against Thursday’s hosts, a home draw no bet can be found at appealing odds in midweek.
