The visiting NE MetroStars side should be favourites in this visit to Modbury Jets, as the away team holds a 13 point advantage from their 17 league games this season.

Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.
