Bet
Considering the recent form and head-to-head record, it's no surprise that Blacktown City are favored to win this encounter. Despite Central Coast II's decent home record, I would recommend a bet on an Away Win for Blacktown City at odds of 1.3. With both teams averaging similar goal-scoring rates and concessions, the odds for an Away Win seem reasonable, especially given Blacktown City's dominance in their previous meetings against Central Coast II.
