![]() ![]() Neither side has more than pride to play for here, but with the Roar being one of the worst performers on the road, this one should be a home banker. They’ve tended to follow a promising result with a string of ordinary ones, which probably explains why they go into this clash on the back of a draw, a loss, and a last-minute victory. While Melbourne Victory haven’t necessarily been as bad as their 10th place suggests, you couldn’t exactly make the case that they’ve been impressive under Tony Popovic this season. They need a clean-out at the end of the season, but even more than that, they desperately need new owners. The Novocastrians just never really got going under Arthur Papas. ![]() They eased past Brisbane Roar on a cold and rainy Queensland night last Monday, and they’ve simply got too much firepower not to see off the Newcastle Jets at home. Sydney FC are slowly starting to find some form at the right end of the season, and they go into this game on the back of a four-game unbeaten run. They only need a point to do so and with Ufuk Talay’s battlers not exactly the best of travellers, this one is likely to finish all square in Sydney’s south-west. Still, it’s Wellington who have everything to play for here, as the Kiwi side do their utmost to try and hold onto their top six position. If there’s a positive for the Campbelltown outfit, it’s that they’ve been tougher to beat at home than they have been away. Just three wins in 2023 have made it a season to forget for Mile Sterjovski and the Macarthur Bulls. ![]() It could be a fiery encounter at AAMI Park between two sides who won’t back down. They’ve gone the entire season unbeaten at home – an away derby defeat to Melbourne Victory notwithstanding – and they’ll fancy their chances of finishing the campaign with another home win over a Wanderers side that saves their best performances for Parramatta. After looking like they might stumble in the run home following a 4-2 defeat to Adelaide United, Melbourne City have since gone seven games unbeaten. It’s hard to tip against the home team here. The Mariners are unbeaten in their last four, but the Reds will want to head into the finals with some momentum. ![]()
