Despite the entire sporting fraternity being curtailed owing to the contentious Coronavirus outbreak on the global stage, Australian football has stood firm. With the season nearing an end, the league’s organisers and management have decided to continue proceedings and wrap up the league within the space of the ensuing month.
Whilst concerns have been raised over the league’s decision to continue in this time of peril, a decision has been taken citing the early culmination of the league. A hoard of encounters will be contested over the next month with matches being contested one after the other to ensure the safety of the players.

For Melbourne City, the latest development comes across a good bit of development with the side looking to seal itself of a spot in the semi-finals. Currently in second spot, the side has wavered in form off late with the three wins in their last five encounters to allow Wellington to cut the deficit between second and third spot to just the mere singular point, a predicament the visitors will be looking to set right come today.
Probable Winner
This should be a straightforward win for Melbourne City. At a time when they have regressed in form, in Central Coast Mariners, they are taking on a team which has offered nothing this term to sit slumped in 11th spot and should act as nothing more than mere pushovers on the day.

CCM Vs MLC Dream11 Goal-Keeper
The biggest source of peril for us when we began crafting out our Dream 11 side for the day was to venture in with four picks from the home unit. Fortuitously for us, in their goal-keeper, Mark Birighitti, we were able to snag one such pick with the shot stopper’s acumen set to come to the fore to see him pile on a solid hoard of save points for us today.
CCM Vs MLC Dream11 Defenders
Although Melbourne City have been left gutted owing to their defensive vulnerabilities off late, today’s clash looks set to be a brazen cleansheet in their favour. They are facing off against a side which has scored on just 20 occasions, a team which is currently staring at a spree of five defeats in a row.
With this looking to be a foregone shut down in the visitors’ favour, we have decided to immerse ourselves in the services of their entire backline for the imminent touting. We begin with Rostyn Griffiths with the player’s affinity to gallop his way into the side’s attacking sorties seeing him come up with the two goals and one assist.
The myriad and guile filled trio of Nathaniel Atkinson, Curtis Good and Scott Jamieson are all imbedded into our setup from Melbourne City.
CCM Vs MLC Dream11 Midfielders
We begin with our singular pick from the visiting unit with Adrain Luna making way into our Dream 11 with the player having scored and provided the 4 assists apiece this season. Elsewhere, from Central Coast Mariners we are moving in with Milan Djuric who is currently their top scorer with the 4 goals and 1 assist with Gianni Stensness coming in to give him company for the tie.
CCM Vs MLC Dream11 Strikers
Melbourne City’s top scorer with the 15 goals and 4 assists, Jamie MacLaren looks set to add to his tally today. He’s squaring off against a paper thin defence which has been blown apart to ship in 47 goals, a backline, Jamie will end up ripping into shreds.
The four goals and three assists see us move in for Craig Noone as well while from the other side of the slot, Jordan Murray wraps up our side for the fixture.
Captain And Vice-Captain
With him having scored 15 goals, Jamie captains our team while Luna is our vice-captain.
