The odds are updated on a frequent basis. You might therefore find that they are different to the ones listed for the above betting predictions.

Black Knights Betting Favourites to Win

The bookmakers have Auckland as -156 favourites for this A-League encounter, with the 1x2 odds suggesting that they are 61% likely to triumph. Central Coast Mariners are seen as the most unlikely winner at +390.

Auckland -0.75 at -128 means you split your Asian Handicap stake between -0.5 and -1. You ideally want a win by two goals or more against Coast, although a one-goal victory means a half-stake return and a refund with the other half.

Over 2.5 Goals is the market leader and that means three or more goals are predicted. The Yes option in the Both Teams to Score market is regarded as the most likely outcome and is trading at -143.
