Head Coach Steve Corica’s men will be out to make history and become the most successful Australian football club in national league history, with a fifth Championship on offer.

The Sky Blues will also be out to defend their 2019 Hyundai A-League Championship and become only the second club to record back-to-back title wins.

Sydney FC will be brimming with confidence following their Semi-Final win over Perth Glory, with Andrew Redmayne rarely troubled in a dominant performance.

For Melbourne City it will be their first ever Hyundai A-League Grand Final appearance.

Of their players in the squad, only Josh Brillante has featured in a decider before, however the Victorians are undefeated since the league’s restarts and will arrive with their own confidence following their 2-0 Semi-Final win.
