Head To Head


This will be the first meeting between the two teams.

Sydney FC Form


Sydney finished fourth in the A-League last season despite only managing 12 wins from their 27 games.

They earned their spot in the new Asian Champions League 2 competition thanks to last season's Australia Cup triumph.

It was a disastrous Australia Cup title defence for Sydney this time around, however, with the Sky Blues knocked out in the Round of 32 by NPL Victoria side Oakleigh Cannons.

Sydney FC Team News


Former Bayern Munich and Juventus star Douglas Costa is a chance to make his debut for Sydney in this game, along with fellow Brazilian Leo Sena and ex-Celtic striker Patryk Klimala.

Eastern AA Form


Eastern finished in third spot in the Hong Kong Premier League last season and gained entry into this competition after winning a sixth FA Cup trophy.

It's been a tremendous start to the new league season, with Eastern winning both of their games to be leading the table at this early stage.

Eastern AA Team News


One player to watch is Spanish striker Noah Baffoe, who scored 30 goals in his debut season for Eastern and will be looking to make a name for himself on the continental stage.

Verdict

Eastern have been winning a lot of games lately, so Sydney can't afford to take them lightly. With home advantage, the Sky Blues are tipped to make a strong start with value on the HT/FT double.
