Melbourne United vs Perth Wildcats Preview
There’s simply no denying that Melbourne is the team to beat this season.
Now 6-0, United has the added luxury of remaining at home and close to their families inside the bubble, something the Wildcats can only dream of.
Melbourne held on for two narrow wins in Round 5 over the Wildcats and Hawks, but the scoreline really didn’t do them any justice.
Dean Vickerman’s side is a well-oiled machine from top to bottom, and the scary thing is, they probably still have a gear to go.
The Wildcats are, of course, full of experience, and a win certainly wouldn’t come as a surprise here.
That said, Perth again found trouble with the Phoenix last week, while their over-reliance on Bryce Cotton and John Mooney is a growing concern.
Considering Melbourne has dominated this fixture in recent times winning three straight over the Wildcats, it’s hard to see their unbeaten streak coming to an end this weekend.
