The visiting Avondale Heights side should be favourites in this visit to South Melbourne, as the away team holds a 14 point advantage from their 15 league games this season.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.
