Auckland FC is hunting another A-League title, and the New Zealand-based franchise is the current favourite to win. However, there are four other teams at single-figure odds, so it promises to be a close competition over the next several months.

A-League Winner Predictions
We have three tips for our A-League winner predictions, who should give punters a sight throughout the long season in Australia and New Zealand.
It’s not easy to win back-to-back titles in the A-League, but we see no reason to have doubts about Auckland FC’s title credentials.
They enjoyed success last year when lifting the trophy, and the systems in place at Auckland after only a couple of years in the competition are outstanding. They’re well-managed, and the players have enthusiasm.
Given the players they’re expected to field this season, they should make another deep run. They are the joint $5.50 favourites for a reason, and our A-League winner betting tips have them at least making the final.
We expect their odds to firm as the season starts, and the odds should firm with every win.
It comes as no surprise to see the Newcastle Jets at the top of the market alongside Auckland and Sydney.
They led the A-League after the regular season last year with 15 wins, three draws, and eight losses. They were five points clear at the top of the table, and although things didn’t go their way in the playoffs, they’ll learn from the experience.
There is a sense of confidence around the Jets this season, and they could be big firmers in betting markets as the season progresses. There are no signs of slowing down, and they could make up for their playoff exit last season.
Take the $5.50 odds as a value bet for a team that will win many more matches than they lose.
It would be a mammoth effort to go from finishing last to first in the space of an offseason, but there has been solid betting support for the Western Sydney Wanderers.
They have made some good offseason signings, and despite scoring only five wins last season, they’re paying $13 with A-League winner odds. That’s a good sign, and things can turn around quickly in this competition.
They’re a proud football club, and despite some tough games last season, they can start this year with some positive results, and that would get the confidence levels rising quickly.
Look for the Wanderers to make a good start to the year, and their odds could firm to single-figure odds after a few weeks. We would love to see them get back to their best, and it’s a good bet to increase interest levels.
