Western United Injury Update & News
Despite losing for the first time in 10 league matches, it will make no sense for John Aloisi to rotate his squad heavily in a derby match. Despite Dylan Wenzel-Halls not finding minutes recently, I believe he could relieve Lachlan Wales from a long run of games.
Alessandro Diamanti won’t slide straight back into the team with his injury concerns. Meanwhile, Josh Risdon is one yellow card away from suspension, hence why he was subbed off against the Sky Blues.
