We said: Melbourne Victory 0-2 Wellington Phoenix

 Melbourne Victory are struggling massively right now, and while playing at home would normally provide a benefit to a team, that is not the case for them right now. The hosts have won just a single match in their own stadium this season, and because of that Wellington Phoenix should be able to claim all three points in this one. Read more.
