The second Elimination-final match in the A-League finals series will see Western Sydney Wanderers taking on Melbourne Victory at CommBank Stadium on Saturday. The winner of this match between the Wanderers and the Big V will face Auckland FC in the semi-final. Let’s get into the match prediction. 

After missing out on the finals series by two points last season, Western Sydney Wanderers secured fourth place in the league standings this term with 46 points in their 26 matches.

WSW will enter this match with momentum, having gone unbeaten in their last 12 regular-season games, with eight matches during that period ending in victory. 

The hosts lost three in a row at home at the start of 2025, but were unbeaten since the February international break with four wins and a draw, while scoring two or more goals in each of those matches.

Meanwhile, Melbourne Victory dropped to fifth place from third in the previous season, despite managing one more point and playing a game less than they did in the 2023-24 campaign. 

The Dark Blues ended the regular season with a 1-1 draw at home to the Newcastle Jets, which took their record to five wins, three draws and two defeats in their final 10 games of the campaign. 

The visitors were a mixed bag on the road this term, recording five wins, three draws and five losses in their 13 away games, though they did score two or more goals in each of their last three.
