The penultimate match of the 2025-26 A-League season will see Sydney FC playing host to Auckland FC on Sunday. The Sky Blues are fourth in the league standings, while the Black Knights are in second place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
This is a massive fixture for Sydney FC. They are guaranteed a spot in the Finals series, but they could drop to sixth place if they lose here, while a victory could bump them up to third.
However, the Sky Blues are not in the best form of late. After a goalless draw against Perth Glory last week, they have now won only one of their last six games and failed to score in three of their last five.
The hosts are also winless in their last four home games (D2 L2). Both previous top-flight matches between these sides at this venue ended in score draws.
Meanwhile, a dip in form during the run-in has seen Auckland FC’s hopes of a Premiers title defence go out the window. However, they still have to win this match to secure second place.
The Black Knights lost to Central Coast Mariners 1-0 last week and are now winless in their last four league games (D2 L2) - their longest run without a victory in the A-League this season.
However, the visitors are unbeaten in their last four away games (W2 D2) and have the second-best record on the road in the division this term (W6 D4 L2).

Auckland FC haven’t been at their best of late either, but they are unbeaten in their last four away games and have never lost to this opponent since joining the A-League. We fancy the visitors to take something from this one. Our Sydney FC vs Auckland FC prediction is draw or Auckland FC.
