    A chance for the Wellington Phoenix to extend the buffer on the chasing pack

    A chance for the Wellington Phoenix to extend the buffer on the chasing pack


    The 'Nix currently sit fifth on the A-League football ladder, and host the seven-placed Western United tonight.

    Wellington's two points clear of sixth-placed Brisbane, and are tied on points with fourth-placed Adelaide.

    Coach Ufuk Talay says it's an important game.



    Kick off from Sky Stadium is at 7:15pm.
