In the A-League, Sydney will play Macarthur, a rival team from New South Wales, on Saturday at the Allianz Stadium. The hosts started their league campaign with an impressive 2-1 victory over Melbourne City, the current champions, two weeks ago. However, they lost to the Central Coast Mariners 2-1 last week.
They scored first in the 11th minute through Paulo Retre, but Marco Tlio and Dan Hall’s goals in the first half helped Central Coast overcome the deficit. With a goal from Bachana Arabuli in last Sunday’s 1-0 win over Perth Glory, Macarthur got back to winning ways.
With 11 points, Macarthur is in fifth place in the league table. Despite only one point separating the two teams in the standings, the hosts are in ninth place in the league table.
