Melbourne Victory Set to Battle Western United in Thrilling Friday Night Clash
Melbourne Victory are gearing up for an exciting Friday night showdown against Western United at AAMI Park on January 10. After a thrilling 2-2 draw with the Western Sydney Wanderers in their previous match, Victory will be looking to build on that momentum and secure another vital result in front of their home crowd. The match is pivotal for Victory, who currently sit in fourth place on the Isuzu Ute A-League Men’s ladder. With only six points separating the top seven teams, every match is crucial in this highly competitive league.
In their last encounter, Melbourne Victory managed to break a frustrating two-game scoreless streak, thanks to goals from team captain Roderick Miranda and young talent Ryan Teague, who converted a penalty under pressure. The squad, under head coach Arthur Diles, will be hoping to continue their positive form against Western United, a team they have had a good record against recently, winning two and drawing one in their three meetings in 2024.

Western United, on the other hand, have had a mixed season so far. They began their campaign with just one win in their first seven matches, but their fortunes turned around with an impressive four-game winning streak. This included shock victories against Sydney FC and Auckland FC on the road, propelling them into the top six. However, their momentum was halted by a 2-0 loss to Melbourne City on Tuesday, which ended their winning streak. Despite that, Western United has been a dangerous attacking side, with 12 different players getting on the scoresheet so far this season, the most of any team in the league.
The match promises to be an intriguing contest, with both teams desperate for points. Melbourne Victory will be looking to take advantage of their recent strong head-to-head record against Western United, while the Green and Black will be eager to bounce back from their defeat to Melbourne City. Fans can expect a high-energy match, with both sides vying to secure valuable points as they look to solidify their position on the ladder.
The teams are set to clash at 7:35 pm AEDT at AAMI Park, and fans can catch the match live on Paramount+. Tickets for the match are available via Ticketek, so make sure not to miss what is shaping up to be an exciting encounter between two of the league’s top contenders.
