Melbourne City Injuries & News
Melbourne City have been superb in the previous fortnight, and I don’t see any reason for them to change their starting line-up despite sharing the points against Perth Glory last time out. If anything, Marco Tilio might get a start for the first time since his sides 3-2 win against Central Coast Mariners two weeks ago.
With a big game coming up against Melbourne Victory on Saturday, Patrick Kisnorbo may not look to play Nabbout who is one yellow card away from a suspension.

Macarthur FC Injuries & News
Macarthur have played two games each week since the start of February, so the squad has had to be used to its core since. Therefore, you can expect some changes to be made from the team that lost to Melbourne Victory. One of those could be experienced English midfielder Jordan Mutch.
Similarly, the Bulls are also at risk of two players being suspended if they feature in Wednesday night’s match. Moudi Najjar and defender Aleksandar Susnjar will miss the derby against the Wanderers if written in the book.
