Show Preview

Adelaide United plays its first home game of the season against defending champions Melbourne City. Join The Roar for live scores from 7:45pm (AEDT).

Only a Bruno Fornaroli wonder strike stopped Adelaide from grabbing all three points against Perth last week and frankly, they probably deserved them.

The Reds dominated possession, looked promising in attack at times and mustered a total of 15 shots on goal. Kusini Yengi looks a potential A-league star of the future and opened his account in style, whilst Isaias fitted back into the fray seamlessly.

Whilst there are many positives for the Reds to take from their start to the season, they face the awesome Melbourne City, who exploded from the gates with two first half goals against Brisbane at AAMI Park.

In the end they were lucky to win, with the Roar potentially robbed of an equaliser and Patrick Kisnorbo would have been furious that his defence allowed the visitors back into the game. He also would have been pleased with the passing flow and possession-based game his team adopted in the first half, something that looked exactly like the quality they produced on a consistent basis last season. Jamie Maclaren, Andrew Nabbout and Mathew Leckie will be desperate to get their goal tallies rolling in this one and after a late scare against the Roar, City will most likely be more than ready for the always plucky Adelaide.
