If you think back to the Nix’s 500th game, they were just a win from breaking into the top half of the table… two games later, and they’re sitting one off the bottom.
The only solace for Wellington fans is that they now get to play Western Sydney, who somehow sit three points below Wellington. Unfortunately, they’re still heavily favoured to take their third L in a row.
From what I’ve learned with Chiefy’s side is that you never know what team is going to come out and play, which makes picking a result very difficult. However, when you dive into the streaks from both sides, there’s some value to be found.
In nine of the Nix’s last 10 games, we’ve seen over 2.5 goals scored, and both teams have scored in eight of their last 10. When you pair those two options, you get just shy of $2.
I’ve also found there are only two goalscorers worth backing. Eze or Armiento at $3.90 and $4.60. They’ve been the two big threats for the Nix all season long. Either of them might be worth a punt if you think the Nix will be on.
Recent history hasn’t been kind to the Wellington Women’s side when they’ve come against Central Coast, having never beaten them.
However, they’ve won four on the bounce and are scoring goals for fun, while Central Coast are in free-fall mode, with no wins in their last three fixtures.
With a win on Sunday, the Nix could sit atop the ladder. Talk about motivation.
Back them to win and both teams to score.
