Melbourne Victory are set to face Central Coast Mariners in an intriguing A-League clash with the aim of entering the top six.

The Mariners, sitting at the bottom of the ladder, showed some resilience with a 2-2 draw against Auckland. However, Victory's potent attack, driven by stars like Clerismario Santos, is likely to be too strong. Expect both teams to score, but Victory should secure the win.

Victory have responded from a slow start to the season and have been one of the form teams in the competition over the last couple of months. It was a brilliant performance from the Big V last week, crushing Sydney FC 4-0 on the back of a Juan Mata masterclass, with the Spanish superstar providing three assists as Brazilian winger Clerismario Santos bagged a brace. Meanwhile, the Mariners remain anchored to the bottom of the ladder, but managed to register a positive result last week against league leaders Auckland, crossing the Tasman and coming away with a 2-2 draw.
However, the Mariners were clearly second-best in that clash and they will likely struggle to deal with the firepower Victory possess on Sunday. Mata is weaving his magic and Victory's attack, including Santos, Nikos Vergos and Nishan Velupillay are looking dangerous. Central Coast usually find the back of the net, so BTTS - Yes is backed, but Victory should come away with all three points.
