    Don't expect too many changes to the Wellington Phoenix starting line-up, despite being thumped 5-1 in their most recent outing


    The Nix are attempting to silence the Roar in Moreton Bay tonight...desperate to move up from 10th on the A-League ladder.

    Coach Giancarlo Italiano is debating whether to give his first-choice players a chance to redeem themselves for their humbling in Melbourne...or minimise disruption.



    Kick-off in Brisbane is at 7 o'clock .

    The women's side also faces Brisbane at 9:45pm.
