DUNEDIN, New Zealand - Welcome to the Caledonian Ground in Dunedin as we bring you live updates of Southern United versus Auckland City FC.
It's a poignant day for the Navy Blues as they try to reclaim top spot in the premiership race following Eastern Suburbs AFC's 2-0 win over the Wellington Phoenix in Auckland yesterday.
Today is the 33rd meeting between the two clubs with the Ramon Tribulietx-coached side very much the favourites in terms of the head-to-head record of 25 wins, five draws and just two defeats.
Southern United's only wins in this fixture came in the very first clash between the pair when as Otago United the South Islanders notched a 1-0 victory at Kiwitea Street.
They followed that up with another 1-0 win the following season but since then its been barren for them with their best results five draws in their last 26 meetings with the Aucklanders.
