The fact that Western United are now sitting just one point above the table's bottom spot adds a significant amount of pressure to this matchup, especially considering that Melbourne Victory is putting pressure on Western United.
Despite the fact that two of their most recent matches ended in draws, the Western Service Crew has not been able to win any of their most recent three matches, which has added more pressure.
The most recent of these matches took place this past Sunday versus Newcastle Jets, and despite the fact that Lachlan Wales had given his team the lead, a point was still considered to be a satisfactory outcome.
After Western United's Jacob Tratt was sent off for a foul that made the game uncomfortable for his teammates, they were forced to fight their way through the final minutes of the match. The fact that John Aloisi's club has only dropped two of their seven games played at home so far this season should give them reason for optimism.
Sydney FC (DLWLL)
This coming Saturday will be a great opportunity to see the offensive prowess of the men coached by Steve Corica, particularly in light of the fact that Western United have allowed the most goals against of any other side so far this season. Throughout the course of this season, Sydney FC has scored more goals than any other side in the competition when playing away from home.
Joe Lolley and Rhyan Grant scored for Sydney FC during the previous weekend's match against Perth Glory, demonstrating the danger that this team poses.
Corica was left disappointed on the sideline as a result of his team's inability to hold on to their lead and let up an equaliser in the 92nd minute.
After the draw, the team's position in the A-League standings dropped to eighth; nevertheless, they hope to leave that disappointment in the past because a victory might move them up to fourth place.
