Wellington Phoenix vs Auckland Odds

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.

Bookies Make Black Knights Most Likely Winners

The latest Auckland odds are -147 which leads to them being favourites in this A-League clash. It’s also implied by the bookmakers that they have a 60% prospect of securing a victory. Wellington Phoenix are the underdogs at +360 which implies a lesser percentage prospect of winning.
