Third-placed Central Coast Mariners will face a tough test when they face A-League table-toppers Melbourne City on Saturday.

Both sides will head into the encounter in a positive mood after winning their last two respective games.

We say: Central Coast Mariners 1-2 Melbourne City

Melbourne City have been the standout side in the A-League this season, and after winning their last five meetings with Central Coast Mariners, we think that they will have the quality and belief required to claim all three points on Saturday.

On Saturday, fourth-placed Western Sydney Wanderers will play host to a Melbourne Victory side that are currently propping up the A-League table.

The Wanderers are well set to qualify for the playoffs, but the visitors have their work cut out to reach the post season with four points separating them from the top six.

We say: Western Sydney Wanderers 2-1 Melbourne Victory

Melbourne Victory have lost their last three away meetings with Western Sydney Wanderers and after losing seven of their last eight away games in the A-League, we think that they will leave CommBank Stadium empty-handed.
