Both teams are struggling in this start of A-League. Adelaide United finished 5th in last season but made a poor transfer market. Some veterans signed like Sanchez, Nick Ansell or Jacob Tratt but they are just average players and didn't fill the gap quality of those players left like best scorer Juric, def Strain who was sold for 300k€ in Israel or other def Elsey.

So far they collected 5 points after 5 games, including 3 draws against Perth Glory, Melbourne City, Brisbane Roar and 2 losts against Melbourne Victory and Western United.

Out for this game are def Ansell (2/0) and st Yengi (4/1).

Wellington Phoenix in other hand collected 4 points thanks to 1 win against Central Coast and 1 draw against Macarthur. While they lost against WSW, Newcastle Jets and Sydney FC.

Lately they have covid problems in the team with 2 players positive. Being based in New Zealand, now they have to train and play in Sydney because of restrictions.

Coach Talay said "The group of staff that we have, have sacrificed a lot. We have guys over here with families back in New Zealand and players likewise."

"The line-up’s changed a few times this week in preparing for the Adelaide game, but unfortunately it’s the world we live in at the moment and we just need to adapt".

Out for this game because of injury are 1st gk Sail (5/0) and best scorer st Hooper (4/2).

In gk will be the debut of 19-years old Alex Paulse.

I think Adelaide United have more quality and should take advantage of Wellington problems to take the 1st win.

GL!

两支球队都在a联赛的开局中苦苦挣扎。阿德莱德曼联上赛季排名第五，但在转会市场上表现不佳。一些老将签下了桑切斯、尼克·安塞尔或雅各布·特拉特，但他们只是普通球员，不能填补那些留下的球员的空白，比如最好的得分手尤里奇、在以色列以30万欧元被卖出的def Strain或其他def Elsey。

到目前为止，他们在5场比赛中得到5分，包括3平珀斯荣耀，墨尔本城，布里斯班怒号，2输墨尔本胜利和西联队。

本场比赛的对手是def Ansell(2/0)和st Yengi(4/1)。

另一方面，威灵顿凤凰城因1胜中央海岸和1平麦克阿瑟而获得4分。而他们输给了WSW，纽卡斯尔喷气机和悉尼FC。

最近他们的球队出现了新冠肺炎问题，有两名球员表现积极。由于总部在新西兰，现在他们不得不在悉尼训练和比赛，因为一些限制。

塔雷教练说:“我们的团队已经牺牲了很多。我们这里有家人在新西兰的球员，也有球员在新西兰。”

“为了准备与阿德莱德的比赛，本周阵容已经改变了几次，但不幸的是，这是我们现在生活的世界，我们只需要适应。”

因伤缺席这场比赛的是第一个gk Sail(5/0)和最佳得分手st Hooper(4/2)。

在gk将是19岁的Alex Paulse的首次亮相。

我认为阿德莱德联队更有实力，应该利用惠灵顿的问题取得第一场胜利。
