Melbourne Victory has named its squads for Round 6 Men’s and Round 4 Women’s action this weekend.
In a blockbuster AAMI Park double-header on Boxing Day, Victory’s Women’s team will look to continue their perfect start against rivals Melbourne City before the Men host Western United, who they beat in Round 1.
Jason Davidson will return following his one-game suspension after receiving a red card against Adelaide.
Chris Ikonomidis came off the bench last week in his return from injury and will look to work back towards peak performance against Western.
Robbie Kruse will play his 100th A-League Men’s match, representing Victory for the majority of his Australian domestic career after beginning at Brisbane Roar.
Amy Jackson will return for the Women after serving her one-game suspension.
