Everything you need to know about tonight’s Isuzu UTE A-League Grand Final

Industree Group Stadium will stage the 2024 Isuzu UTE A-League Grand Final as Premiers Central Coast Mariners host Melbourne Victory in this season’s title decider.

Attention then turned to Gosford where Central Coast Mariners played host to Sydney FC for the remaining spot in the decider; the Mariners led 2-1 after the first leg and a 0-0 draw in game two helped Mark Jackson’s Premiers squeak into the Grand Final where they’ll face Victory for a shot at back-to-back Isuzu UTE A-League Championships and a historic treble.
