Italian ace Alessandro Diamanti and Western United were one of the major stories of last season and the second-year club raise the curtain on the A-League 2020/21 campaign with a clash against Adelaide United in Geelong.
Flamboyant playmaker Diamanti lit up the competition as Mark Rudan s Green and Black marked their debut campaign with a trip to the Finals Series and a knockout win against Brisbane Roar before falling at the penultimate hurdle, in the Semi-Final, against Melbourne City.
The team from Melbourne s west have retained the majority of the players that led them to great highs, adding ex-Melbourne City flyer Lachie Wales and Barcelona old boy Victor Sanchez, and they first come up against a Reds outfit aiming to re-establish themselves under newly-appointed permanent head coach Carl Veart.
