Adelaide United vs Wofoo Tai PoPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

The group starts now and the table says nothing yet: what counts are the recent outings, all the more so because the two sides have never met. Adelaide United come from a thin spell in competitive games: in August a 0-2 at home to Công An Nhân Dân in the AFC Champions League Elite, before that a 1-2 at South Melbourne in the Australia Cup. Their two most recent wins date back to July and came in friendlies, 2-0 at Playford City Patriots and 5-0 at The Cove. Further back, in May, the 0-3 at home with Auckland and the 1-1 away, again against Auckland. Wofoo Tai Po, by contrast, bring a full recent record: five wins and one defeat in their last six games. The two freshest are the 3-2 at home over BC Rangers and the 4-1, also at home, with Eastern; the only slip is the 0-2 at North District in late August. Further back the 2-1 over Eastern District and the 2-0 over BC Rangers, both at home in the FA Cup, and the 3-2 at Warriors. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
