Foxtel Go is available for free if you already have an existing Foxtel service. Foxtel Play is better for those who are just looking to access live-streaming services rather than have a traditional installation.

Foxtel Play has a two-week free trial available to new users, and after that costs a monthly subscription fee.

SBS will also offer a stream of the match through their site The World Game, however, like their TV coverage it will be on a one-hour delay.

Sydney FC are seeking to become A-League champions for the third time after winning this season’s premiership in a canter, losing only one game for the year.

Melbourne Victory could become champions for the fourth time if they win, and it would be the first time they did so in a season that they did not also finish as premiers.

After a dominant season the Sky Blues are the raging favourites however, at $1.83 to win, while Melbourne Victory are out to $4.33.
