Head-to-Head
Sydney FC and Oakleigh Cannons are yet to play any head-to-head match. It will be their first meeting.
Team News and Lineup
Sydney FC boss Steve Corica has no injury concern before the crucial quarter-final match. Their center-forward Patrick Wood will be desperate to be on the scoresheet.
Sydney FC Lineup (Probable)
(4-1-4-1): Heward-Belle; James Donachie, Aaron Guard, Alex Wilkinson, Rhyan Grant; Patrick Yazbek; Jake Girdwood-Reich, Anthony Cáceres, Alex Parsons, Max Burgess; Patrick Wood
Similarly, there are no injury concerns in the Cannons’ camp. Their three new signings, Nicolas Niagorian, Scott Lochhead, and Daniel Clark, are clicking nicely. Fans will look forward to them.

Prediction
The Victoria NPL side Oakleigh Cannons have been on an impressive run in the Australia Cup. They thrashed Bonnyrigg White Eagles by 5-0 goals. Moreover, they won a 5-3 goals thriller into extra time against Brisbane City to reach the quarter-finals.
However, those results are a part of their inconsistency. They lost two in July-August in the Victoria NPL before finally winning on penalties against Heidelberg to reach the playoffs.
It would be difficult for them to bear top tier A-League side. However, they will surely put up a good fight against Sydney FC. We predict the Cannons’ Australia Cup ends tonight.
