Melbourne City’s VPL1 side will return to action this Saturday afternoon with a place in the Promotion Play-Off Final on the line.
After falling to Brunswick City in the final round of the regular season, City finished third on the VPL1 table and now shifts its focus to the all-important play-offs.
A week’s rest has given Alessandro Diamanti’s squad the chance to reset and refocus, and they’ll be raring to go when they face Melbourne Srbija at the City Football Academy.
Saturday’s clash kicks off at 3:00pm on the ctrl:cyber Pitch, with the winner to progress to next week’s Play-Off Final against either Brunswick City or North Sunshine.
City can take plenty of confidence into the knockout campaign after a consistent season, which saw us finish with the second-best attacking and defensive records in the league. With promotion to the top flight on offer, Diamanti’s team will be looking to rise to the occasion and keep their push alive.
Fans are encouraged to come down and get behind the boys as they look to take another step towards history!
Saturday’s fixture kicks off a huge weekend for our Academy, with all four of our Junior teams in Grand Final action on Sunday at the Home of the Matildas.
