Preview:
City contested an extremely boring goalless draw with crosstown rivals the Victory last week and will need to be a lot better this week. I think that they will improve from that hit-out, but they come up against a well-drilled side that is clearly hungry to win.
Adelaide were desperately unlucky not to take anything from their match with Sydney FC, and I think they’ll be quietly confident of responding with a win, against what is an easier opposition (albeit away from home).
This should be a great game but we’re tipping City, just.
