Melbourne Victory Women return to the Home of the Matildas with one foot already in the A-League Women’s Grand Final, holding a commanding 3-1 lead over Adelaide United after an impressive first-leg away win.
A stellar team display in Adelaide saw key players like Emily Gielnik and Claudia Bunge step up, with Bunge's late brace from set-pieces underlining Victory’s deadly threat from dead-ball situations. Now back on home turf, where they haven’t lost to the Reds since 2015, Jeff Hopkins’ side are in prime position to seal their spot in the final, buoyed by club-record unbeaten form and a near-full squad.
Adelaide United, meanwhile, face an uphill battle in Melbourne as they aim to overturn the two-goal deficit and reach their first-ever Grand Final. Despite showing flashes of attacking promise in the first leg through Erin Healy and Fiona Worts, lapses in set-piece defending proved costly. Without Tiarna Karambasis due to concussion protocols, Adrian Stenta’s team will need to channel their attacking firepower and throw everything forward.
