Sydney FC v Central Coast Mariners
Friday, 7.50pm (AEDT)
An in-form Adam Le Fondre is the first challenge of 2019 for Central Coast Mariners, who arrive at Jubilee Stadium to face Sydney FC on Friday night with a mountain to climb.
Le Fondre’s brace guided Sydney FC to a 2-1 win over Brisbane Roar last time out, and the Sky Blues striker will relish facing the lowly Mariners, who have conceded 24 goals so far this season.
But Mike Mulvey’s men gave a good account of themselves in their 2-1 defeat to the reigning Premiers earlier in the season and will be desperate to end their long wait for three points.

Adelaide United v Wellington Phoenix
Saturday, 5.35pm (AEDT)
Adelaide United are out to build on a dramatic 2-1 win over Newcastle Jets when they host in-form Wellington Phoenix on Saturday evening.
Marco Kurz’s men left Newcastle with a priceless three points thanks to Craig Goodwin’s last-ditch penalty, snapping a three-match winless run in the process.
However, the Reds face a big test in the form of visiting Phoenix, who are unbeaten in their last five matches and could issue a huge statement of intent with a victory in the City of Churches.

Western Sydney Wanderers v Melbourne Victory
Saturday, 7.50pm (AEDT)
A response is sorely required of Western Sydney Wanderers when Melbourne Victory come calling on Saturday evening.
The Wanderers slumped to a disappointing 2-0 defeat to City in Round 10, a result and performance that was one poor showing too far for some of the Red and Black faithful.
Markus Babbel’s side will have raise their game tenfold for the visit of the reigning Champions, who have drawn their past two matches.
There will be no shortage of motivation for the Wanderers however, who lost the reverse fixture 4-0 in Melbourne.

Melbourne City v Newcastle Jets
Sunday, 5.00pm (AEDT)
Melbourne City are entering a great patch of form of late, underlined by a sturdy 2-0 away win at Western Sydney Wanderers on New Year’s day.
Warren Joyce’s side had previously shut out Adelaide 2-0 and drew 1-1 in the Melbourne Derby, and will fancy their chances at solidifying their spot in the top six with three points against the Jets.

The visitors endured another frustrating occasion at home in Round 10’s 2-1 loss to Adelaide United, a match that saw Newcastle dominate again but fail to convert their opportunities.
Last season’s Grand Finalists will need to resolve that problem sooner rather than later, starting with Sunday’s challenging trip to AAMI Park.

Brisbane Roar v Perth Glory
Sunday, 7.00pm (AEDT)
Struggling Brisbane Roar will hope the arrival of table-topping Perth Glory inspires the side to a much-needed three points at home.
The Queenslanders turned in a spirited and much-improved performance against Sydney FC last Saturday, but were unable to avoid a 2-1 defeat – one that keeps the club stuck in ninth position.
Glory, on the other end, are out to maintain their lead at the Hyundai A-League summit. Tony Popovic’s side finished off 2018 with a dominant 4-1 win over Central Coast Mariners and will look to retain their three-point advantage over Melbourne Victory and Sydney FC when action at Suncorp Stadium commences.
