Off the back of an emphatic result over Brisbane Roar, Melbourne City return to AAMI Park searching for consecutive wins on the home stretch of the regular season. This week, the boys in City blue take on Adelaide United, in what is set to be a Saturday blockbuster.
With the school holidays in full swing and just two home matches remaining for the year, there’s no better time than now to get behind the boys. As the top four race heats up, City will look to continue their unbeaten streak at home in a vital six-point battle, which will play a defining role in shaping the final standings.
