Melbourne City and Brisbane Roar match-goers have their most valued supporter outfits on for this first game week of a new A-League campaign. Game on!

These teams have little in common geographically as Brisbane Roar have to travel 1600 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

The A-League is the top level of the Australian football league system. Seasons run from October to May. Ten teams play a regular season of 27 fixtures to create a league table winner and the highest placed teams qualify for a playoff. The league winner is called the “premier” while the playoff winner is the “champion”. There is no set system for relegation, unlike most leagues in the world.
