Western Sydney Wanderers host the Central Coast Mariners in a rematch of last season’s grand final as Round 11 concludes with a Monday night fixture. Join us for live scores and commentary from 7.00pm AEDT.

Western Sydney
The Wanderers have a chance to close the gap on league leaders Brisbane Roar, after they went down 2-0 to the Newcastle Jets on Friday night.

The Wanderers have had a impressive start to the season, with their only loss coming at the hands of Brisbane Roar.

The Wanderers ended their short stint of poor form last week beating a disciplined Newcastle outfit 1-0. The Wanderers had failed to get a victory from their previous three outings, but showed their quality by bouncing back.

Central Coast
The Central Coast played their last match on Thursday against Wellington in a rescheduled Round 6 fixture, walking away from the mid-week game with a 1-0 victory.

The Mariners have had a steady start to the series sitting pretty in sixth with an opportunity to jump the queue into third with a win.

The new Mariners boss Phil Moss is still under some pressure after he was chosen to fill the massive shoes of Graeme Arnold. If he were able to grab three points from this fixture it would release a lot of pressure.

X-Factor
Youssouf Hersi
The Dutchman is yet to hit full stride after spending several weeks on the sideline with a foot injury earlier in the campaign.

While the Wanderers have several game breakers, Hersi is their main x-factor and they are a much more potent attacking force when the right-winger is at his best.

Prediction
The Wanderers are going to be too strong at home.

Western Sydney Wanderers 2-0 Central Coast Mariners
