Gameday in Melbourne for the final between City & Western United.

City should be only with O’Neill, he is an injury since a long time now. Berenguer was back in the squad last game.

On their side Western United still without important players as important midfielders Khrin & Diamanti , important defender Topor-Stanley.

Lustica was back in the team on the previous game.

In RS City finished 1 with 14 wins, 7 draws & 5 losses for 55 goals scored & 33 goals conceded. They have the best offense of the league by far.

Western United is ranked 3 with 13 wins, 6 draws & 7 losses for 40 goals conceded & 30 goals conceded.

Very good final here with City who is aiming to make a back to back and to defend their crown.

Western did an amazing season of course for a team who is existing since only few years but I don’t rate them good enough to be in this final. They made a huge win against the Victory 1-4 in but it was quite an hold up, they were dominated, they got only 1,13 xG and Victory got 2,45 xG.

For sure they will be quite under pressure for this game as they are not used to play such big games.

H2H is in advantage of Western United this season but on the field City was much stronger on two games where it was a big one side game.

For me clearly City in front of their fans will win this game, they are too powerful offensively with an average of 1,79 xG. Despite of being a big offensive team they have a very solid defense with only 1,07 xG for their opponent.

City is a team who is getting the possession on their games and Western United usually let the possession to the opponent and will try to aim on counter.

I expect a game heavily dominated by City with players as Maclaren, Leckie, Nabbout etc.

Key player to watch will be of course their best scorer Maclaren.

I expect 2-1 or 3-1.

墨尔本的比赛日，城市队和西部联队的决赛。

墨尔本城伤病应该只有奥尼尔，他已经受伤很长时间了。贝伦格在上一场比赛中回到了大名单中。

在他们这边，西联仍然没有重要的球员，如重要的中场克林和迪亚曼蒂，重要的后卫托普-斯坦利。

鲁斯蒂卡在上一场比赛中回到了球队。

在RS城，14胜7平5负，进55球失33球。到目前为止，他们的进攻是联盟最好的。

西联排名第三，13胜6平7负，丢40球，丢30球。

非常棒的决赛，墨尔本城的目标是背靠背卫冕。

西部联本赛季的表现令人惊叹，这支球队成立才几年，但我认为他们还不足以进入决赛。他们1-4击败了胜利队，但这是一场巨大的胜利，他们被控制了，他们只有1,13 xG，胜利队有2,45 xG。

当然，他们会在这场比赛中承受很大的压力，因为他们不习惯玩这样的大型游戏。

H2H本赛季比西联更有优势，但在球场上，墨尔本城在两场比赛中表现得更强，这是一场大型的单方比赛。

对于我来说，显然墨尔本城在他们球迷面前会赢得这场比赛，他们的进攻太强大了，平均1.79 xG。尽管他们是一支进攻强大的球队，但他们的防守却非常稳固，对手只有107xg。

墨尔本城是一支在比赛中获得控球权的球队，而西联通常会把控球权让给对手，并试图进行反击。

我期待一场由墨尔本城主导的比赛，有麦克拉伦、莱基、纳布特等球员。

最值得关注的球员当然是他们的最佳射手麦克拉伦。

预测比分2:1或3:1。
