Macarthur's team got off on the wrong foot in the current edition of the A-League, losing 1-0 at Brisbane. That puts them in last place for the time being, but that's not to be taken lightly at such an early stage. Macarthur is a team that is aiming for the top six places, so that it can qualify for the play-offs. Last season they didn't manage it, and this season those places look to be very tight, especially as there are title contenders like Melbourne City and Auckland, but also Melbourne Victory, Sydney, Adelaide United and WS Wanderers. All that's left for Macarthur to do is win their games and do the maths at the end.

Confirmed Lineup: Filip Kurto, Damien Da Silva, Walter Scott, Matthew Jurman, Callum Talbot, Luke Brattan, Liam Rose, Harrison Sawyer, Oliver Randazzo, Rafael Duran, Dean Bosnjak.
Coach: M. Smith.
