Melbourne City U21 vs South MelbournePrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Melbourne City U21 are eighth in NPL Victoria on thirty points from twenty-two rounds but take barely a point a game at home, scoring 1.4 and conceding the same. South Melbourne are a different side on the road: 2.2 goals a game, eight trips out of eight over 1.5 and four wins in the last six. The only previous meeting finished 1-2 to the visitors. The verdict: two goals are needed. South Melbourne have not finished an away game under 1.5 this season and Melbourne City U21 have seen at least two goals in eight of ten at home. I read it around 82%. My take: the visitors attack steadily and the hosts struggle to keep the door shut.
