Sports Mole provides score predictions for both of Saturday's A-League fixtures - Wellington Phoenix vs. Western United and Melbourne City vs. Central Coast Mariners.

Wellington Phoenix and Western United will be desperate to end their respective winless runs when they lock horns at the Sky Stadium on Saturday.

Separated only by goal difference, both sides currently sit three points outside the top half of the A-League table and will now be eyeing a late push for the playoff places.

We say: Wellington Phoenix 2-1 Western United


While both sides have struggled for most of the season, Wellington Phoenix appear to have found their feet in recent weeks.

Given the stakes of the game, we predict a close contest but fancy the hosts continuing their dominance over Western United and claiming all three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Fresh off the back of ending their six game unbeaten run, Central Coast Mariners travel to AAMI Park on Saturday to take on league leaders Melbourne City.

The hosts will aim to quickly return to winning ways after they were held to a 2-2 draw against Wellington Phoenix in their last outing.

We say: Melbourne City 2-0 Central Coast Mariners


​Melbourne City and Central Coast Mariners have been two of the best sides in the division this season and we can expect an entertaining contest between both sides.

The visitors have struggled for results in recent games, while the hosts head into Saturday's clash in stronger form following a series of impressive outings.

We predict Melbourne City will maintain their fine form and win the tie to confirm their first-ever league title.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.
