    After several weeks missing key players through injury and international duty, the Wellington Phoenix are set to welcome back key attacker Reno Piscopo, for tomorrow night's match against the Brisbane Roar


    The Australian has been sidelined with a calf injury.

    But stand-in Phoenix coach Giancarlo Italiano says Piscopo is likely to be the one change to the squad at Redcliffe.



    All White Clayton Lewis won't feature as he awaits the results from an MRI on his injured ankle - but the midfielder does NOT have a fracture.
