Once again Head Coach Jamison Olave elected to go with the now familiar 3-4-2-1 with Jimmy Slayton in goal and a three man back line of Nicolas Giménez on the right, Taylor Peay in the center and James Moberg on the left. Andrew Brody and Noah Powder played out wide in midfield on the right and left respectively with end-to-end responsibility while Sam Brown and Luke Mulholland handled the back part of the midfield in front of the defensive line. Jack Blake, again serving as captain, and Luis Arriaga played in the attacking midfield with Kyle Coffee up on the point.
