Show Preview
Home at last, Wellington Phoenix will be looking to celebrate their return to New Zealand with a win over Western United on Saturday afternoon. Keep an eye on all the action with live scores on The Roar from 2:05pm (AEDT).
While their last three results have been draws, the Phoenix have taken points away in their last seven matches, sparking an unlikely charge to the finals.
Escaping an away clash with Melbourne City with a 2-2 draw thanks to a late Tomer Hemed strike – and controversial celebration – might as well have been a win given City’s season to date. With home fans able to cheer on their side for the first time all season, the Nix’s form will have the teams above them on the table looking nervously over their shoulder.
Sitting level with them on points is Western United, though they are heading in the opposite direction. Four straight losses have Mark Rudan’s men fast slipping out of finals contention. Another loss here, or even a draw, would just about put a late resurgence beyond them.
