Melbourne City, who have drawn their last two league matches, will be hoping to get back on the winning track this time around to make sure they don't fall too far behind the top teams.
It's surprising that Melbourne City are in the bottom half of the league table, but there's no doubt that they'll be pushing for a place near the top again in the near future. Perhaps the most surprising thing is that there are only two teams with fewer goals scored than Melbourne City, so they need to do better in that area.
Jimmy McCarron has been the leading scorer in the past seasons in Mexico City, but he has only scored 4 goals so far this season. As a striker, I know that when you can't score, your teammates need to share the goals.
Torky Aslan is one of the best players in the team for now, and I think his goal-scoring ability and creativity can make the difference in this game, while Marija Golis can also be a threat on the left side of the pitch. I'd like to see Brazilian striker Rio Nato give a better performance, and if he gets into the swing of things, he has the ability to shine in the A-League.
Brisbane Lions Roar started the season strong, but have lost their last two matches in a row, and are now suffering from injuries to a number of key players, including attacking midfielders Henry Hollie and Berenguer, and defender Sigourney Willy.
Milos Cali is probably the most threatening player in the front line of the team, while young scorer Thomas Waddingham's performance in the AFC Cup was impressive, and a goal would boost his confidence, considering he only has 1 league goal for the time being.
