After their draw in the previous round, Melbourne City and Melbourne Victory remain at the top of the standings. As things stand, only Adelaide United appears capable of challenging their dominance in the league.
City and Victory face key away matches
Melbourne City will travel to face Newcastle Jets this Saturday and is expected to secure three points against the struggling New South Wales side.
Meanwhile, Melbourne Victory heads to New Zealand to take on Wellington Phoenix. While the challenge is slightly tougher for Victory, a win is well within reach.
Adelaide United ready to capitalise
Should either—or both—of the league leaders slip up, Adelaide United has the opportunity to close the gap. A victory against Perth Glory would bring them level with Victory or even overtake them, depending on results. This crucial match also kicks off Round 15 on Friday night.
Other key fixtures
Canberra United hosts Central Coast Mariners, aiming to extend its winning streak.
Western United faces Sydney FC in a tough away clash, with Sydney desperate to climb the table.
