Team News: Plate Night squad confirmed

Just one match remains this season with your City boys set to lift the Premiers Plate on Friday night!

We’ll become the first A-League Men’s squad to do so three years in a row and it will be a night of celebration, with a special presentation also on the cards for our number nine who last week became the league’s all-time top scorer.

Head Coach Rado Vidosic is set to have almost a full squad to pick from for this contest, giving City the perfect chance for one last tune-up behind Finals.

19-year-old James Nieuwenhuizen recently fractured his hand which will see him out for an extended period, joining Arion Sulemani (ACL) on the unavailable list.

Both Valon Berisha and Curtis Good have returned to the squad after enjoying a well deserved rest in last Saturday night’s win.

Mathew Leckie and Richard van der Venne both made successful returns from injury last time out and will hoping to see some extended minutes come Friday as they look to build up their match fitness ahead of Finals.
