Melbourne Serbia plays in one of the lowest ranks of Australian football divisions – Victoria Premier League 3.

At the previous stage, in a penalty shootout, they managed to overcome the resistance of the not very strong Modbury Jets. The team played its last match on August 17, losing 0:3 to Essendon Royals.

7.20Tip and bets
"Hume City" has a solid advantage in class, is in good playing shape, having made it to the semi-finals in NPL Victoria. At the previous stage of the Cup, the "citizens" already defeated one opponent who was noticeably inferior in class and are unlikely to stop there today.
Our prediction is a victory for Hume City with an Asian handicap (-2) at odds of 1.80
Bet on total
In the 1/16 finals, Hume City played to zero, which we do not rule out today. Melbourne Serbia does not stand out in attack, in the last two lost matches they did not distinguish themselves by even one goal scored.
Second bet - Melbourne Serbia will not score with odds of 2.08
Bet on the first half
On their home field, Hume City will obviously try to create a lead for themselves right at the start of the game. We don't expect the opponent to be able to stop them, the difference in class between the teams is too big.
Prediction - Hume City win in the first half with odds of 1.44
