Football Bet of the Day: Wellington put the heat on Melbourne

Sting Like Bees: Wellington Phoenix have scored in each of their last six A-League away games

"We're looking at the even money about Over 3.5 Goals, which has been the right side of the line to be on in 9/12 games at AAMI Park this term"

Back Over 3.5 Goals @ 2.001/1 in Melbourne City v Wellington

Wellington Phoenix are on fire and Tobias Gourlay hopes to end the week in a blaze of glory

Melbourne City v Wellington
Monday 09:30

New York City 1 New England 1 at Yankee Stadium last night. Honours even for them, but our dishonour is complete. At least for this week.

And unless we can finish with a consolation. Australia's the place we might find it. Melbourne City's first dozen home games of the A-League season have all delivered Over 2.5 Goals, but the market is wise to them.

Instead, we're looking at the even money about Over 3.5 Goals, which has been the right side of the line to be on in nine of those 12 games at AAMI Park this term.

Visiting Wellington Phoenix have struck 10 times in their last three away games. Each of their last six on the road have delivered Over 3.5 Goals.

Here's hoping they can drag us out of the ashes early tomorrow morning.
