Published on: Apr 5, 2021 12:30 pm IST|Updated on: Apr 5, 2021 12:42 pm IST
WEL vs MLC Dream11: Melbourne City’s excellent winning run was brought to an end as they went down to Western United last time out. Having won their last six, they were expected to claim another success but fell to a 2-1 loss and they will be keen to respond immediately in this clash with Wellington Phoenix. Consistency is what Phoenix are searching for as they struggle to putting winning runs or even unbeaten streaks together and having lost against Macarthur in their most recent outing, they look set to fall short once again with Melbourne able to get back to winning ways at the first time of asking.
