Adrian Leijer will return from suspension for Tuesday night’s clash with the Wanderers, while captain Mark Milligan has also been added to an extended match day squad.

Milligan may return to the starting XI, provided he recovers from today’s gruelling training session on AAMI Park.

Youngsters Jordan Brown and Chris Cristaldo have also been added to Kevin Muscat’s squad, as Victory prepare to take on the Wanderers for the second time in three weeks.

Chilean Pablo Contreras will miss this fixture, after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season in Friday night’s 1-1 draw with Newcastle.

Nick Ansell, Scott Galloway, Jason Geria and Connor Pain remain unavailable, with the foursome away on international duty until later this month.
