Heidelberg United vs South Melbourne Prediction: South Melbourne to maintain their awesome start

It’s a beautiful day for a fixture such as this one, which will take place on May 22, 2022, between the team in 1st position and the team in 11th position of the NPL Victoria, Round 14 matchup. Check the teams' conditions and pick the best betting options available.

Heidelberg

Heidelberg, who are the home team in this fixture, are 11th in a league of 14 teams, which I can say is not the very best for a team of their caliber. They have won 5, drawn 1, and lost 7 of their 13 matches played this season whilst scoring a total of 22 goals and conceding 21. Against their opposition South Melbourne, they have won 7 of the last 18 matches and played just a single draw, and looking at the form they go into this match with, I fear things might not go their way.

South Melbourne

South Melbourne are the team in form and it is no wonder they are on the top of the log table. They have been impressive in their 13 matches played so far in the league, winning 11 matches, drawing 1, and losing 1, having scored 35 goals and conceding just 10. This is some amazing form, and such a team deserves to be no1 in the league. Even though in fine form, Melbourne faces tricky opposition in Heidelberg, who are struggling for form and having picked up only 5 wins in their 1 match played. There have been goals flowing every time in the last matches between these two, and this match should be no exception.

Expert Betting Tips

This match looks to be a match full of goals for both teams, looking at the total goals scored by each team in the league (Melbourne 35 and Heidelberg 22). I predict South Melbourne will win this match because of their form with their strikers firing in from all angles, even though they will face tough opposition in Heidelberg. Heidelberg have somewhat a leaky defense and will leak goals at the back. I predict a straight win for the away team and a total of more than 2 goals, with the away team scoring first in the fixture due to their goals scoring prowess. 

• Away win and over 1.5 for 2.66
• Away team win or draw for 1.38
• Goal in both halves (Yes) for 1.60
