The Sydney man, who will clock up 100 A-League appareances this weekend, believes it will be the toughest test yet for Vitezslav Lavicka's men. Victory currently enjoy a three-point lead over their rivals.

"I just found out - it's a good little milestone," said Brosque. "Bimbi (Steve Corica) scored last week on his 200th so hopefully I can do the same."

Brosque is looking forward to a fixture that always generates plenty of interest and excitement.

"It's probably the best the two sides have been form wise going into this game," he said. "We're at the top of our game they're at the top of theirs.

"So it's going to be very hard playing them in their own home, I'm sure it'll be a big crowd as well."

In their last visit to Etihad Stadium the Sky Blues silenced the home supporters with a 3-0 victory, something both Sydney and Victory will keep in mind heading into the match.

 "The thing that we can take going into the game is that we beat them well there last time and quite convincingly," said Brosque. "I think the boys will be confident but it's going to be our toughest match yet."

Brosque travels with the squad to Melbourne on Friday morning, fresh from helping Sydney end Wellington's long unbeaten home run. 

"We have to keep up the winning form," he said. "We had our sort of slump already where we lost three in a row. I think we've come out of it, we've won two tough games in a row now.

"And these next three games really will go a long way in defining our season and where we finish."

With John Aloisi and Mark Bridge both hoping to make returns from injury, Sydney FC have the firepower in attack. With a midweek fixture next Wednesday, Brosque is mindful of the team's approach.

He added: "We've got a busy couple of weeks coming up now we've got about three games in seven or eight days and it will be good to play with whoever's up front."
