Sydney FC and Macarthur FC will battle for three points in an Australian A-League matchday four fixture on Sunday (November 10th). The home side will be looking to bounce back from the 1-0 defeat they suffered at home to Sanfrecce Hiroshima in the AFC Champions League 2 on Thursday.
Matsuki Kato stepped off the bench on the hour-mark and broke the deadlock within seconds of coming on to settle the contest.
Sydney will turn their focus to the league, where their last game saw them claim a 3-2 away win over Brisbane Roar.
Macarthur, meanwhile, fell to a 2-1 defeat away to Melbourne Victory last weekend. They took the lead through Valere Germain's 51st-minute strike while Daniel Arazani drew the game level from the spot in the 69th minute. Reno Piscopo scored the match-winner six minutes later.

Sydney FC vs Macarthur Prediction
Sydney FC have won two of their opening three league games of the season but have won just one of the last four head-to-head games (three losses). Ufuk Talay's side are the pre-game favorites but have had less time to prepare for this game than their visitors given their continental engagements.
Macarthur began their campaign this term with a 6-1 thrashing of Perth Glory but have lost two games since then. Mile Sterjovski's side took the lead on both occasions before losing.
We are backing the home side to claim a narrow victory with goals at both ends.
