Wellington Phoenix take their Hyundai A-League Round 20 home fixture to Sydney this Saturday as they take on the Premiers, Sydney FC at Campbelltown Sports Stadium.
Head Coach, Mark Rudan has decided to pick the same squad that fought hard for a point against Melbourne Victory last weekend so there is a chance we could also see the same Starting XI from last weekend.
The Wellington side will take confidence from their last trip to Sydney against Steve Corica’s side after they came away 3-1 winners.
