We’re into the last round of the regular season, and the Nix are no good for a playoff run, but they’ll want to finish strong under Greenacre.
After their 2-1 win last week over Western Sydney, the Nix are now four wins in their last five games.
Not much else to say here other than let’s hope the Nix can end the season on a high note.
The main goal threat for the Nix is, of course, Eze and under Greenacre, he’s been adding to the tally relatively consistently. There is a betcha boost for him to score and the Nix to win, which I think could be worth a play.

If Auckland win, they’ll lock up the second spot on the ladder and automatically qualify for the two-leg semi-finals.
However, if they lose and Adelaide gets a win, they will jump then, and Auckland will need to play a single elimination final.
So there should be plenty of motivation for the Black Knights.
They’re also without a win in their last four games and will want to turn the tide before it’s crunch time.
Sydney won’t be easy, though, especially at home. They’ve not lost in their last three games.
It tends to be a low scoring affair, and with plenty on the line I can’t see more than two goals being scored.
Best: Under 2.5 Total Goals @ $2.10
Value: Auckland FC Win 1-0 @ $9.00 or Sydney FC Win 1-0 @ $9.00
Goalscorer: Super Boost – Sam Cosgrove or Jesse Randall Anytime Goalscorers @ $2.50
