Men’s Team News: Round 9 – Western United

Tony Popovic’s squad is in for Boxing Day’s clash with Western United at AAMI Park. 

It’s a relatively unchanged line up for Victory as they look to move forward after last week’s match abandonment.

Victory brought an unchanged eleven into the Derby last week, the first time the side was unchanged this season, and the Head Coach will be looking to pick a side that can overcome a resurgent Western United who they face for the first time since last season’s Semi Final.
