Watch the NRMA Insurance Western Sydney Wanderers crash Harry Kewell-s farewell party and secure second position on the Hyundai A-League table when they play Melbourne Heart on Saturday 12 April at AAMI Park.

You can watch live on Fox Sports 3 from 5:30pm.

With a win enough to guarantee a second position and direct entry to the Hyundai A-League semi-final, the Wanderers will be going all out against Melbourne Heart who languish at the bottom of the ladder.

If history is anything to go by the Wanderers have a clear advantage heading to Victoria having never lost to the red side of Melbourne and scoring more than double the goals Heart have managed in this fixture.

Adding to that confidence will be Western Sydney-s impressive ability to score away from home; scoring in all but two of their matches on the road this season. Conversely, Heart have struggled against the Wanderers backline bagging only three goals from their five encounters.

With three points the focus, head coach Tony Popovic says he is more than happy to crash former Socceroos teammate Harry Kewell-s farewell party.

“We have an opportunity to come second, we want to come second and we will do everything we can to come second,” said Popovic.

“I hope he has a good game when he plays but it-s about getting the win for us.”

The Wanderers- final match of the regular season kicks-off at 5:30pm from AAMI Park on Saturday 12 April with coverage on FoxSports 3 and ABC Grandstand.
