Central Coast Mariners are coming off a remarkable victory in Big Final last season, where they secured a stunning 6-1 win over Melbourne City. I can say nobody expected that but their run at end of the season was truly remarkable. They had finished the regular season in second place behind Melbourne City. In the play-off semi-finals, they defeated Adelaide United both at home and away, earning them a spot in the Grand Final. In the league match, they delivered a memorable performance, with top-scorer Cummings scoring a hat-trick. Cummings has since moved on to play for Mohun in the Indian Super League. Central Coast Mariners also had the second-best away record during the regular season, winning their last three away fixtures and scoring ten goals. This included a 4-1 win over Adelaide United.On the other hand, Adelaide United experienced a dip in form towards the end of last season's A-League campaign. Despite initially looking like they would secure a top-two finish, they only managed to earn two points from their last four games, ultimately finishing in third place. While they defeated Wellington Phoenix in the play-off quarter-finals, their season came to an end with two losses to Central Coast Mariners in the last four. Adelaide United's home form last season started strong, with seven wins in their first ten matches, but they only secured a point from their last three home games. I expect even game here and there is a great value in 0.5 AH on Central Coast Mariners, who are champions of A-League.

中央海岸水手队在上个赛季的大决赛中取得了非凡的胜利，他们以惊人的6比1战胜了墨尔本城队。我可以说没有人预料到这一点，但他们在赛季末的表现确实非常出色。他们在常规赛中排名第二，落后于墨尔本城。在附加赛半决赛中，他们在主场和客场都击败了阿德莱德联队，赢得了决赛的入场券。在联赛中，他们的表现令人难忘，头号射手卡明斯上演了帽子戏法。此后，卡明斯转会为印度超级联赛的莫亨队效力。在常规赛中，中央海岸水手队的客场战绩也排在第二，最近三场客场比赛都取得了胜利，打进了10球。其中包括4-1战胜阿德莱德联队。另一方面，阿德莱德联队在上个赛季的a联赛结束时状态有所下降。尽管一开始看起来他们将锁定前两名，但他们在最近四场比赛中只拿到了2分，最终以第三名的身份结束了比赛。虽然他们在附加赛的1 / 4决赛中击败了惠灵顿菲尼克斯队，但他们的赛季却在四强中两次输给了中央海岸水手队。阿德莱德联队上赛季的主场状态开局强劲，前10场比赛取得7场胜利，但他们在最后3场主场比赛中只拿到了1分。我期待在这里的比赛，对于中部海岸水手队来说，0.5 AH的价值很大，他们是a联赛的冠军。
