There will be no easing into the new season for the Wellington Phoenix when they open their 2020/21 A-League football campaign.
After their best regular-season finish in 2019/20, Wellington welcome defending champions Sydney FC to their temporary home of WIN Stadium in Wollongong.
The Sky Blues were the only side the Phoenix didn t beat last season, losing twice and drawing the other meeting between the two.
