Florin Berenguer is back for Melbourne City’s trip to Central Coast Mariners on Wednesday evening (kick off 7.50pm AEDT).
The French attacker, one of City’s biggest recruits in the off-season, returns from a calf injury which has kept him sidelined from early December.
Berenguer’s return will boost Warren Joyce’s side in their hunt for four wins in a row.
Opponents Central Coast welcome midfielder Aiden O’Neill back into the fold but are without defender Kye Rowles, who is serving a one week suspension following his red card in last Saturday’s 3-2 defeat at Wellington Phoenix.
