Sydney FC Team News
The goal of the home club is to qualify for the playoffs, but for now, there are many difficulties in achieving that plan. Sydney FC has recorded 3 wins, 1 draw, and 4 losses in 8 games so far, so with 10 points won, it ranks ninth in the table. What no one expected from them is that they will be one of the most efficient teams in the league, already in the early stages of the championship.
So far, they have scored 14 and conceded 15 goals, so with an average of 3.6 goals per match, they are the third most effective team in this competition. They play very fast and extremely offensively, so a large number of goals in their matches should not be surprising.
They have been playing very erratically lately, so wins and losses alternate very often. They will need wins against weaker teams like Macarthur FC for the playoffs, and they simply cannot miss this opportunity.
Macarthur Team News
Many predicted only the bottom of the table for them, but the visiting team surpassed those forecasts. Macarthur FC has 11 points and is coming into this game in seventh place in the table. We cannot say that they left an excessively good impression, considering that they lost all matches against teams of similar quality.
Regarding the current form, the guests won 6 points in the last 5 games. In those matches, they scored 7 and conceded 10 goals. It is interesting to note that in the first three games of this season, they conceded only 1 goal, and in the next 5, they took the ball out of their net as many as 10 times.
They just don’t seem like a very serious team, and it’s only a matter of time before they get back into the negative groove. Apart from Matthew Millar, the team does not have a player who can make the necessary difference on the field, and that is too little, even for this level of competition.
