The Wander Women are set for an exciting clash this weekend as they host Western United at CommBank Stadium, part of a thrilling double-header fixture. With a bumper crowd expected, the team hopes to use this moment as a turning point in what has been a challenging season.

Despite showing determination in every match, the Wanderers have only managed one point so far, falling short of their pre-season aspirations to break their Finals Series drought.

Their recent outing against ladder leaders Melbourne City ended in a 2-0 loss, with the team conceding a counter-attack goal and a deflected free kick.

This weekend’s opponent, Western United, provides an intriguing challenge. The Wanderers did the double over United last season, winning 2-0 on the road and 3-1 at home, where Sophie Harding delivered a standout performance.

However, United, led by former Wanderers coach Kat Smith, come into the match with momentum after a late winner secured their second win of the season against crosstown rivals.

The Wanderers are eager to turn their season around, and with the support of a passionate home crowd, they aim to secure their first win and begin their climb up the ladder.
