The teams are in ahead of Round 2 in the Isuzu UTE A-League, and a pair of Young Socceroos headline the names returning to the mix.
Adelaide United striker Luka Jovanovic is in line for his first start of the season since returning from the Marbella Week of Football in Spain; he’s joined by fellow Young Socceroo Thomas Waddingham in pushing for A-Leagues minutes after an incredible international camp in which Australia enjoyed victories over France, Netherlands and Denmark.
Meanwhile, experienced Mariners full-back Storm Roux returns to the selection mix, while young Mariners defender Jacob Farrell is suspended for collecting a red card against Adelaide in Round 1. Melbourne Victory veteran Leigh Broxham could add to his all-time A-Leagues appearance tally as he’s recalled to Tony Popovic’s squad, while Newcastle Jets captain Brandon O’Neill returns from suspension.
Don’t forget to get your fantasy squads ready for battle this weekend, as you catch up with all the team news below.
