Western Sydney Wanderers will be in the national spotlight again on Friday morning

"Under Marco Kurz, United have produced Over 2.5 Goals on 13/19 road trips, including six of the last seven"

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.804/5 in Western Sydney Wanderers v Adelaide United

Tobias Gourlay expects defences to go Wandering as Adelaide make the trip to Western Sydney

St Etienne left it late, but they came from behind to beat Marseille 2-1 with an 88th-minute winner from Wahbi Khazri. Their winner was also our winner as it sneaked us over the goals line.

We're looking to consolidate that good result with another one from Australia on Friday morning. The day's sole A League match pits Western Sydney Wanderers at home to Adelaide United. The hosts' most recent league game finished 3-4 in Perth; their most recent home match was a 2-3 defeat to Wellington Phoenix. We're backing more goals for this one.

Under Markus Babbel this term, 8/13 Wanderers games have delivered Over 2.5 Goals, including 3/4 at home recently. An earlier meeting with Friday's opponents finished 2-2 in Adelaide, while Adelaide's last trip here brought a 2-3 defeat for the hosts.

Under Marco Kurz, United have produced Over 2.5 Goals on 13/19 road trips, including six of the last seven. With the Wanderers conceding at least twice in 6/7 this term, and United having managed just three clean sheets in 19 under Kurz, we fancy there are more goals on the way this week.
