The Wellington Phoenix travel to Sydney to take on the Central Coast Mariners in this rescheduled round six fixture.
Just five days after their heartbreaking 2-1 defeat to the Brisbane Roar, the Wellington Phoenix are determined to make their rescheduled fixture against the Central Coast Mariners count tonight in Sydney.
The Round 6 fixture was rescheduled in light of the All Whites participation in World Cup qualifiers and forms part of an exciting run of fixtures over summer for the Hyundai A-League.
Tonight’s match will be the first Hyundai A-League match to be played at North Sydney Oval and both sides will be looking to rebound from weekend defeats when they walk out on the iconic venue.
Kick off is 7.30pm AEDT and will be screened in New Zealand on Sky Sport 2 from 9.30pm NZT.
