Adelaide United v Canberra United: match preview

Adelaide United are chasing their first points of the season when they host finals hopefuls Canberra United in the final match of Round 6 on Sunday.

In what’s been the story of the season so far for the Reds, they were right in the contest against Roar all the way last weekend before succumbing late on 3-2.

They’ll be desperate to produce a 90 minute performance in front of their home support at Marden Sports Complex.

Opponents Canberra also conceded late in their last outing, having to settle for a 1-1 draw with Perth Glory on Friday.

Heather Garriock’s side remain in the top four but need a win in this one to keep pace with the sides above them.

The clash between young guns Mary Fowler (Adelaide) and Simone Charley (Canberra) should be a beauty.
