Pacific FC vs HFX Wanderers FC. Shape of the Teams

As the Canadian Premier League kicks off this weekend, a captivating showdown between Pacific and Wanderers awaits us on Saturday. In a coast-to-coast encounter, both teams will be motivated to notch their first victory of the season in the CPL opening round.

Since the inception of the CPL, Pacific FC has maintained an unbeaten record in season openers, and this is certainly a game in which the hosts can continue their successful run.

Pacific been relatively quiet on the transfer market, with Christian Greco-Taylor being their most recent signing, coming over from the Whitecaps Academy. Other incoming transfers include attacker Reon Moore, goalkeeper Sean Melvin, and Aly Ndom who came over from the Finnish club IFK Mariehamn.

Last year, HFX Wanderers finished in third place, while Pacific was just one place lower in fourth place. Pacific FC managed to advance to the semi-final of the CPL playoffs but eventually lost against Cavalry (2-1).

Pacific FC vs HFX Wanderers FC Prediction, Odds

Pick: Pacific FC to Win
Odds: -114 (Tonybet)

Pacific FC stands out as one of the best teams in the CPL. Last year, they secured a victory against the Wanderers in the playoffs. Besides their track record, several other reasons make them the favourites coming into this game.

First of all, Pacific FC always strives to attack in matches on their home ground, and last year, they finished as one of the top-scoring teams in the league.

Secondly, Ayman Sellouf, last season’s top scorer, has remained with the club and will pose a serious threat to HFX Wanderers’ defence.

Furthermore, looking at the recent history between these two teams reveals Pacific FC’s upper hand with three wins, two draws and only one loss in their last six encounters.

This statistical advantage, combined with a strategy that emphasizes early aggression and the creation of numerous scoring opportunities, could tilt the scales in favour of Pacific FC.

Pacific FC vs HFX Wanderers FC Betting Tip

Pick: Under 2.5 Goals
Odds: -107 (Tonybet)

This match looks like it will be close, and a low-scoring affair seems probable. Only two out of the previous seven encounters breached the 2.5-goal threshold. The Wanderers are not fond of attacking and will sit back, focusing on building their flow on counterattacks.

Canadian Massimo Ferrin, who was fifth on the list of top goalscorers, stands out as a key offensive player in the Wanderers’ squad. However I don’t think he will be able to register a goal without adequate support.

On the other side, Pacific FC’s tendency to create numerous scoring opportunities does not necessarily translate to a high goal tally. Matches in the CPL are always close, and goals can be scarce.

Given these factors my suggestion would be to pick less than 2.5 goals in this encounter.
