Melbourne City

Under the guidance of Aurelio Vidmar, the team has risen to the top six of the Australian A-League, thanks to two recent victories. It could have been less critical for "City," as not long ago the team held the fourth position in the league table. However, the loss of crucial points in several matches led the club to slide to seventh place at that time.

Currently, after 26 matches played, the Melbourne-based club has 36 points. The gap from the fifth-placed Sydney FC is just two points. In the previous round, Aurelio Vidmar's team defeated Sydney Wanderers 2-1 away.

Western United

After 26 rounds, Western United occupies the second-to-last position in the A-League table, with 26 points accumulated. It's worth noting that despite having no chance to break into the top six, John Aloisi's team continues to collect points actively.

Recently, the team managed to defeat Macarthur 4-2 at home. And in the last round, they secured a 4-2 victory over Perth Glory in an away match. Overall, Western United has secured three victories in 13 away matches, while suffering defeats in eight cases.
