Sydney FC Head Coach Steve Corica said: “We are all looking forward to playing some competitive football again and this represents a huge opening week of the season for us with three derbies.
“This game comes hard on the back of our opening game of the Isuzu Ute A-League season against the Wanderers and we’ll follow it up with another exciting derby encounter against Macarthur at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium.
“It’s great to have so much football to look forward to.”
Sydney FC have appeared in the FFA Cup Final three times winning the competition once against Adelaide United in 2017 thanks to a 2-1 win and goals from Milos Ninkovic and Bobô.
All games are available to watch live & free on 10 Play, with international viewers able to tune in via the My Football YouTube channel. Ticketing details will be confirmed shortly.
Football Australia is working with all stakeholders to schedule the remaining Round of 32 matches and subsequent Round of 16 fixtures in line with State Government Public Health Orders. It is envisaged that Round of 16 matches will be drawn and played in quick succession across November and early December, before the competition moves away from Zones for the Quarter Finals. Details and dates for the later stages of the competition will be released in due course.
