A-League Preview & Insights: Western United Vs Sydney FC
November 30, 2019

Sydney Fc will look to continue their red hot form against Western United on Sunday as United look to find the net for the first time in a long time.
WESTERN UNITED VS SYDNEY FC – SUNDAY 1 DECEMBER, 4:00PM, GMHBA STADIUM
Sydney FC have found their groove and they go into this clash on the back of three wins over Newcastle, Melbourne Victory and Perth.
While the champions are in excellent touch, the same can’t be said about United who have lost two on the spin after their shock 1-0 defeat to the Mariners on Sunday.
Even with the likes of Alessandro Diamanti, Besart Berisha and Scott McDonald in their side, United haven’t found the net in the last 212 minutes of play.
