This is the Sydney game before the World Cup break, and both teams lost in the last round of the league, so they will try to bounce back this time.
It is rare to see Western Sydney Wanderers ranking higher than their opponents before the match, but FC Sydney's performance this season has been extremely unstable, especially the lack of tightness at the back, which has been the team's fatal injury.
FC Sydney recorded the 2nd highest goals scored in the league, their offense ability is undeniable, but the number of goals conceded is only less than Western Union at the bottom of the table. The fact that FC Sydney has yet to record a shutout is a perfect example.
Western Sydney Wanderers lost 0-3 against Central Coast Mariners in the last round of the league, recording their first defeat of the season, making many people think that Western Sydney Wanderers are just a flash in the pan. I won't deny it, there is no doubt that the average strength of Western Sydney Wanderers is not up to the highest level of the Australian professional league, and if they can finally be ranked in the top 6 of the league, it would be a mission accomplished.
