Competition: NPL Queensland
Market: Moreton City Excelsior win
Odds: 1/3 @ 1xBet
Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the NPL Queensland table, Moreton City will welcome Sunshine West Coast to Wolter Park on Wednesday morning.
Starting with the hosts, enjoying what has been a real purple patch, Moreton City find themselves at the heart of another NPL Queensland title scrap. Last seen putting in another rugged performance as they clinched a 2-0 victory at home against Eastern Suburbs, Cameron Millar̢۪s side open Wednesday̢۪s showdown sat just one-point adrift of climbing to the top of the table. Getting July underway with a sensational 5-0 romp away at Sunshine West Coast, the Excelsior will be desperately searching for a repeat display here. Looking to lay down another title marker, Moreton are unbeaten in all of their last eight consecutive NPL Queensland appearances Рa run that stems back to May 25th. Likewise, along with recording three clean sheets on the bounce, it should also be highlighted that Wednesday̢۪s hosts have conceded just a single strike in over 470 minutes of action.
As for the visitors, while Moreton City might be enjoying a real flurry, the same can̢۪t be said for Wednesday̢۪s guests. Last seen falling to a 3-1 loss at home against Gold Coast, the Buderim-based outfit are scrapping it out at the foot of the NPL Queenslands standings. In fact, putting just nine points on the board from any of their 16 appearances so far this season, they sit rock-bottom of the table. Getting July underway with that woeful 5-0 drumming against the title contenders, Sunshine Coast have now lost all of their previous four straight NPL Queensland appearances by an aggregate score of 13-2. Likewise, showing a string of glaring defensive struggles, Melvyn Wilkes̢۪ side have also registered just a single point from their last seven outings. Given what has been a huge recent gulf in class, we are backing a home victory in midweek.
