Wellington vs Western Sydney Wanderers Prediction and Betting Tips | December 10, 2022

Wellington Phoenix will welcome Western Sydney Wanderers to the WIN Stadium for an Australian A-League matchday seven fixture on Saturday (December 10).

The hosts have not been in action since a 3-2 defeat at home against Western United last month. Wellington took a two-goal lead through Oskar Zawada and Bozhidar Kraev. A late collapse, though, saw Western United claim maximum points, with Alessandro Diamanti scoring an injury time winner off the bench.

Western, meanwhile, last played competitive football last month, when they claimed a narrow 1-0 victory at Sydney FC. Kusini Yungi's 70th-minute strike was the difference between the two teams.

They followed that up with a harrowing 5-1 defeat against Everton in a friendly. Anthony Gordon was the star of the show for the Merseyside outfit, scoring a hat-trick.
