Ufuk Talay was given the job as Western Sydney Wanderers head coach back into April and making a good start to the season is essential from their point of view. Standing in their way are Sydney FC, who have won both of their derby games so far this year.
Western Sydney Wanderers have been successful in just 12 of the 44 previous fixtures between these two inter-city rivals. Finishing rock bottom of the table last season, it can’t get any worse for WSW in this campaign. But Sydney FC are a very good team and capable of doing some serious damage in 2026-27. Backing them with home advantage to put three points on the board here is a move worth making.
