The teams are in ahead of Round 8 in the Liberty A-League.
Canberra United star Vesna Milivojevic is the big inclusion this weekend after an injury scare in Round 7. Milivojevic scored a hat-trick in a 5-1 win over Brisbane Roar but went down clutching her knee late in the game.
There were fears of a serious injury but the 21-year-old and Golden Boot leader has been included in the Canberra squad for this weekend’s clash with Melbourne Victory.
The club revealed on Thursday there was no damage to Milivojevic’s anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), and only bone bruising from a hyperextension.
