Kisnorbo’s side take on crosstown rival Melbourne Victory at AAMI Park before City’s men lock horns with Sydney FC at 7.50pm.

There are 25 double headers this season and Kisnorbo said the early kick-off on a Friday would not be an issue.

“We’re very fortunate to play in front of a double header, that’s the way we see it, we can’t stop to concentrate on times as a negative,” Kisnorbo said.

“It’s actually a positive, it’ll be the women’s before the men’s and the fans will be there to get along to both games.

“We want to promote not only our W-League girls, but the game in general and I think it’s fantastic.

“It can only be better for the game, time is not really the important thing… the most important thing is these females are getting exposed to a big environment.”

City will be looking to get off the mark on Friday evening after losing their first game 4-1 to Perth Glory last week.

Victory, however, have struggled in the past two seasons but managed to start this campaign with a 2-1 win over Canberra United at home.

Kisnorbo has vast experience playing in the UK and said he was amazed how far women’s football had come.

He paid credit to the facilities City have on offer to the women.

“I think looking back, being a former player and coaching females now, the game has come such a long way,” he said.

“We’re very fortunate with our club that they get exposed to a great environment in an elite facility to improve themselves as elite athletes.

“At the end of the day, football wins. That’s the main thing, these elite athletes, the females are getting exposed in a big environment, playing on big pitches in front of crowds.”
