FC MacArthur hosts Wellington Phoenix on Sunday afternoon, and this match should be quite interesting, as both sides lost in the last round of the league, so both sides will be hoping for a rebound performance this time around.
FC MacArthur were pushing for the top of the league a few weeks ago, but now that they're only 4 points off the bottom of the table, the change in leadership doesn't seem to have had a positive effect on the team. I doubt if the players will be disappointed with Joki's departure and won't listen to the instructions of the new leader.
MacArthur will need a few experienced players in the squad to step up on and off the field and lead the team out of their predicament. I think the stars of the team, center Usko and wing Gneloni, will have to play an important role in boosting the team's morale.
Although Wellington Phoenix lost 1-3 to Melbourne Victory in the last round of the league, they are only 3 points away from the 2nd position in the league. I believe that a pair of stalwarts, Tim Paine and Zushua, will be the best team in the league.

They need to make improvements to be able to achieve good results this season. Luckily, Polish goal scorer Oskar Sawada is doing well and has scored 8 goals so far this season. He is a smart player and he knows where to go and where his teammates need the ball. I think he will give a good performance against FC MacArthur, so I think Wellington Phoenix can get their first win in the last 3 matches.
