This is it: after 14 Rounds of gripping football, followed by two Semi-Finals that couldn’t have been any tighter, the Westfield W-League 2019 Grand Final is upon us.
And, more importantly, fans can watch the game on FOX SPORTS 505 or on SBS VICELAND at 4:30pm AEDT.
Melbourne Victory led the way throughout the campaign, yet it was Perth Glory and Sydney FC who finished strongest, with both sides bagging 28 goals in 12 games — seven more than the nearest competitor.
Sydney FC, who host Saturday afternoon’s Grand Final at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium, started the season in patchy form before producing some of the most thrilling attacking football of the season.
Perth have had a constant burn and, despite encountering three losses along the way, have looked every bit of a potential Championship-winning side.

Sydney FC v Perth Glory
Saturday, 4:30pm AEDT
Teams seldom need motivation for a Grand Final: the pinnacle of Australian football, the ultimate reward for months and years of hard work.
But Sydney FC will have an extra reason to fire up. Saturday afternoon marks 363 days since they lost 2-0 to Melbourne City at Allianz Stadium in last year’s Grand Final.
The Sky Blues have the perfect opportunity to redeem themselves and enjoy the sweet taste of victory.
Perth, meanwhile, have never won a Westfield W-League Championship, despite featuring in two Grand Finals.
The side lost the 2014 Grand Final 3-1 to Canberra United, before losing by two goals once more in the 2017 edition to Melbourne City.
In fairness to Bobby Despotovski’s side, Glory look complete throughout the park and will no doubt back themselves to go the whole way this time around.
