Western Sydney Wanderers and Melbourne Victory meet at ANZ Stadium, in a match for the 17 th round of the A League. In the last direct match for this edition of the league, on 06-11-2017, the two teams tied (1- 1). The history of recent direct confrontations is favorable to the visiting team, which has 6 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss in the last 10 matches. Despite being a match between 6 th and 4 th of the table, it is actually a match between the 8 th best player in home matches and the 3rd best in away matches.

Western Sydney Wanderers:

The home team is currently in the 6 th position of the league, with 19 points won, after 4 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Adelaide United, by (1-1). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Wellington Phoenix, by (1-1). This is a team that usually gets more positive results in away matches than at home, since it won 11 points in away matches and 8 at their stadium, with 10 goals scored and 12 conceded in away matches, against 7 goals scored and 12 conceded at home. In the last 6 home league matches Western Sydney Wanderers has a record of 2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 8 points out of 18 possible. Defensive consistency has not been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 15 matches in this competition, they only won 1 comeback in the 6 matches in which they suffered the first goal. In the last 8 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 4 of their 8 goals between minutes (31′-45 ‘).

The Western Sydney Wanderers enter the field after a stranger draw to a ball against the last classified, the Wellington Phoenix, thus adding the fourth consecutive game without losing for the championship. The 4-4-2 should be the tactical scheme chosen by Josep Gombau for this game, with highlight for Mark Bridge in the creative sector. The Spanish Oriol Riera already scored 6 goals in the competition, which corresponds to a contribution of 35% for the total goals of the home team. At risk of suspension by accumulation of yellow cards are Brendon Santalab, Robert Cornthwaite and Roly Bonevacia.

Melbourne Victory:

After 6 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses, the away team is currently in the 4 th position, with 23 points won. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Wellington Phoenix, by (2-1). In the last match, they won in a home match against Perth Glory, by (3-2). This is a team that usually gets more positive results in away matches than at home, since they have won 14 points in away matches and 9 at their stadium, with 13 goals scored and 12 conceded in away matches, against 10 goals scored and 11 conceded at home. In the last 8 away league matches Melbourne Victory has a record of 4 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 14 points out of 24 possible. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half-time was the 0-0 (3 out of 8 matches). The team has conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, so it has not presented great defensive solidity, but its attack has scored regularly, as it has always scored at least one goal in the last 10 matches for this competition. In 16 matches in this competition, they have only won 2 of the 7 matches since they suffered the first goal.

The Melbourne Victory leaves for this motivated match, after a victory by (3-2) in the reception at Perth Glory: James Troisi, Mark Milligan and Kosta Barbarouses scored the goals of the victory. For this duel, coach Kevin Muscat will have to line up his team in the style of the last match, that is, in 4-2-3-1. Besart Berisha is still the best scorers of the visitors, with 6 goals scored. Everything indicates that the coach will not be able to count on left-back Mitch Austin, due to an injury.
