Betting Is Open At Sportsbet On Western Sydney A League Team Name

With an A-League team from Western Sydney set to enter the competition all the attention switches to what moniker it will take and leading online bookmaker sportsbet.com.au is tipping the Saints will come marching in.

Saints has been installed as the $10 favourite narrowly ahead of Rovers ($11) and Wolves ($12) while Red Devils, Gunners and Magpies (all $41) are an outside chance.

“The market refers to what the club nickname will be,” said sportsbet.com.au’s Ben Hawes. “There is obviously plenty of options but we’ve got Saints at the top of the market.”

Sportsbet.com.au has installed Tony Popovic and Ante Milicic as the joint $4.00 favourites to be named coach of the new team ahead of Miron Bleiberg and Branko Culina ($7.00) and Ernie Merrick ($9.00) while Frank Farina is joined by current Sydney FC staff Steve Corica and Ian Crook as $17 chances.

$34 is also on offer for the Western Sydney team to win the A-League in its inaugural season.
