Western Sydney team news and form: Good news for Alen Stajcic

The 51-year-old manager’s only issue is finding a suitable replacement for up-and-coming midfielder Dyclan Scicluna. His cruciate ligament tear will take him out for the rest of the season, which will likely give Brillante more minutes among the starters.

Predicted lineup: Thomas (GK), Clisby, Bonetig, Pantazopoulos, Cleur, Brillante, Priestman, Kraev, Milanovic, Sapsford & Borrello

Player to watch: Nicolas Milanovic

Nicolas Milanovic is the key threat to our professional Auckland vs Western Sydney predictions. He is the leading goalscorer for the visitors, with 10 domestic league goals so far. However, we believe Auckland’s defenders have what it takes to nullify in-form Milanovic.

Second player to watch: Guillermo May

Auckland’s key weapon in the attack is called Guillermo May. With eight goals since the start of the current campaign, May is proving to be a valuable player for his manager this season.
