CommBank Young Matildas star Emilia Murray has been named in her first Melbourne City squad after an off-season move from Adelaide United – and the 19-year-old’s club debut could come in Saturday’s Melbourne Derby.

Meanwhile, Brisbane Roar host Sydney FC at Perry Park but, after beginning the season without Singapore international and star off-season signing Danelle Tan, the club have confirmed the young striker is set to undergo minor surgery to correct a knee injury and will be sidelined for four-to-six weeks.
