Reds to face WSW at ServiceFM Stadium in Australia Cup Quarter Final Showdown 

The Australia Cup 2024 Quarter Final match schedule has now been confirmed, with eight clubs remaining in contention to be crowned Australia Cup Winners.

Adelaide United’s Australia Cup 2024 Quarter Final clash with Western Sydney Wanderers will take place on Thursday 12 September at ServiceFM Stadium at 7pm.

Ticketing details will be confirmed in the coming days.

Adelaide advanced to the last eight of the tournament following a 3-2 victory over NPLWA Premiers, Olympic Kingsway.

This will be the second year running the Reds face the Wanderers in the Australia Cup, having been eliminated in the Round of 16 by the Wanderers in 2023.

The tournament’s final eight are divided evenly between Member Federation representatives and Isuzu UTE A-League Men outfits, with Adelaide United FC, Macarthur FC, Melbourne Victory FC, Western Sydney Wanderers FC, Hume City FC (Football VIC), Moreton City Excelsior FC (Football QLD), Oakleigh Cannons FC (Football VIC) and South Melbourne FC (Football VIC) all fighting it out for both coveted silverware and qualification into the 2025-26 AFC Champions League Two.

The Quarter Finals will start with an all-Member Federation matchup, with Hume City FC (Football VIC) and South Melbourne FC (Football VIC) facing off at Hume City Stadium on Wednesday, 11 September, as the hosts look to atone for a recent NPL Victoria Semi Final defeat. Three-time Australia Cup Winners, Adelaide United FC host the Western Sydney Wanderers FC at ServiceFM Stadium, Gepps Cross the following evening – the first time either side has come up against A-League Men opposition in the 2024 edition of the tournament.

Oakleigh Cannons FC (Football VIC) will host Macarthur FC in a Member Federation and Isuzu UTE A-League Men contest at the Home of the Matildas in Bundoora, on Saturday, 14 September. While later that evening, Moreton City Excelsior FC (Football QLD) will be on the hunt for another Cupset as they welcome Melbourne Victory FC to Perry Park in Brisbane following their dramatic Round of 16 win over Perth Glory FC.

In a new format for the 2024 iteration of the Australia Cup, the Draw for both the Quarter Finals (QF) and Semi Finals (SF) were conducted immediately following the Draw for the Round of 16, meaning clubs can now map their path and opponents all the way to the Cup Final.

The Australia Cup 2024 Quarter Finals will be played over four (4) days from 11-14 September 2024.

The venues, dates and timings for the Semi Finals will be made available week commencing 16 September, as Football Australia works with participating clubs and Member Federations to navigate ground availability.
