Macarthur team news and form: No Germain, no party
We didn’t get to see goalscorer-in-chief Valere Germain in last week’s game against Sydney. Macarthur used backup Sawyer at the heart of the attack, but this experiment proved to be unsuccessful, as the result on the scoreboard after 90 minutes of play was 0-2 in favor of the visitors.
Predicted lineup: Kurto (GK), Uskok, Boli, Adamson, Vujica, Oikonomidis, Rose, Brattan, Jakolis, Da Silva & Sawyer

Player to watch: Marco Tilio
Seeing as so many of Hearts’ players are injured, we have no other option but to give Tilio a shout-out in our Melbourne City vs Macarthur prediction. The winger is doing a fine job at keeping Melbourne City in the title race. He should have a place among coach Vidmar’s starters.
Second player to watch: Jet Drew
With six goals since the start of the season, Jed Drew is the visitors’ 2nd-best goalscorer so far. With his lung-bursting runs down the wing, Drew will surely try to deliver a sturdy display at Melbourne Rectangular Stadium.
