Melbourne United vs Cairns Taipans Preview

With their first loss of the season now in the books, Melbourne will be looking to get back to business with another win over the Taipans.

United lost by four points to the Wildcats on Saturday night in large part thanks to an uncharacteristic number of turnovers.

Cairns, on the other hand, are suddenly on the verge of winning three straight following two impressive wins over the Breakers and Hawks.

Melbourne already owns a win over Cairns this year in what was a memorable two-point thriller back in Round 2.

While the Taipans are finally beginning to resemble the team we thought they’d be at the start of the season, United are almost impossible to tip against on the back of a loss.

Melbourne has played to a perfect 2-0 record head-to-head and at the line in this situation over the last 12 months, so I’m willing to give them a mulligan for last weeks loss.
