The Wellington Phoenix reserves will look to get back on track in round 5 after two heavy defeats last weekend in the National League.
Both men’s and women’s sides are on the road, with the women playing at 1pm on Sunday, 27 October at Fred Taylor Park.
They will face fifth-placed West Coast Rangers, who are the league’s top scorers having netted twelve times in their first four games.
The Nix will still be without a number of players who have been on international duty at the FIFA U-17 World Cup.
Meanwhile, the men’s reserves will play Birkenhead United AFC at Shepherds Park at 3pm on Sunday, 27 October.
Birkenhead are third, having only lost to top of the table Auckland City so far.
After a promising start, the Phoenix have slipped to eighth place, and will try to wrest back some momentum with a positive result.
In the youth National League, the girls’ U-17 team travel to the Waikato, taking on Melville United AFC at Gower Park at 1pm on Saturday, 26 October.
The boys’ side have completed the regional phase of the competition, qualifying for the national phase by finishing second in the central region.
They now wait to see the draw for the next phase as they attempt to win back to back national titles.
All senior National League games are available to watch live and free on FIFA+.
