Rydalmere are on a roll and ready to pounce
Bulls FC Academy have won two and lost just one of the last three meetings between these sides in the New South Wales League 1, but never at Rydalmere Lions’ home ground.

Rydalmere’s form has been sizzling of late, winning four and drawing one of their last five league matches and coming into this on the back of three consecutive victories. This Rydalmere Lions vs Bulls FC Academy preview highlights that they won their last two league matches, in convincing fashion, beating Northern Tigers 3-1 away and UNSW FC 4-1 at home. The Lions are a highly aggressive team with a fast-paced, high-pressing game that is hard to resist and they have made their own back yard a fortress this term.
Bulls FC Academy enter Saturday’s game on a less impressive run of form, winning just once, drawing once and losing three of their last five in the league.
