Sydney FC coach Vitezslav Lavicka expects Wellington to provide a tough test of his side-s championship credentials tomorrow despite the New Zealander-s recent poor run of form.

The Phoenix have turned their Westpac Stadium home into a fortress in previous seasons but have failed to win any of their last three games at home, losing twice.

“They are maybe under pressure a little bit but when we watch their games this season they-ve created good chances at home but they-ve also played good performances in away games.

“They have a good side, probably a bit mentally not good (at the moment) but we-re expecting a tough game.”

Sydney FC play Wellington in a 2:30pm AEDT kick off on Sunday afternoon.
