Preview:
The Western Sydney Wanderers are a complete shambles, they have never recovered from losing Tony Popovich, and I am keen to take them on once again.
Adelaide United are the safest bet of the weekend in the A-League.
They suffered a shock loss to the Central Coast Mariners last week, but they are a much better side than that performance suggests.
They have won eight of their past 13 games as home favourites, while the Western Sydney Wanderers are a poor 2-8 as away underdogs.
