Show Preview
The Wellington Phoenix play for top spot on the A-League ladder when they tackle the white-hot Sydney FC at Eden Park. Join The Roar for live scores and commentary from 3:30pm (AEDT).
Prediction
With the official launch of Auckland FC during the week exciting the home fans, the locals will be out in force to watch their future derby opponent.
That voice might get the Phoenix over the line, but Sydney should get the chocolates if they score early in what looks a juicy encounter.
