The Western Sydney Wanderers will be hoping it’s a case of third time lucky in 2014/15, but the betting suggests they may have to wait at least another year before being crowned A-League Champions.
Sportingbet.com.au has installed Melbourne Victory as $5 favourites to win the 2014/15 A-League season, in front of Adelaide United, Brisbane Roar, Melbourne Heart and the Wanderers all at $6.50.
“With Besart Berisha boosting an already strong side, Victory look the team to beat next season,” Sportingbet’s Andrew Brown said.
“Melbourne Heart would be double their odds if Manchester City hadn’t bought them, but they’ll get a solid marquee striker and plenty of other decent players and could even be shorter odds by the start of the season.”
The Newcastle Jets and Wellington Phoenix are equal outsiders at $15.
