Unchanged lineup for Sydney FC against Phoenix

4:34 pm on 27 September 2008

The Sydney FC are set to field an unchanged line-up for the third week running against Wellington tomorrow, with things ticking along very smoothly at the historically unsettled club.

Sitting equal top of the table after five rounds with a deep squad and stability both on and off the field, John Kosmina's men travel to Westpac Stadium full of confidence for the clash with the A-League's bottom club.

Wellington, still winless in 2008-09, have suffered a further blow with All Whites winger Leo Bertos a late withdrawal with an ongoing groin injury.

Despite it all, Kosmina says Wellington could be a danger game with Ricki Herbert's men desperate.

For Wellington, veteran striker Vaughan Coveny has been recalled and could potentially partner Shane Smeltz in the front line as the Kiwi club look to end a poor goalscoring run which has seen them score just three times in five matches, conceding nine.
