After an enthralling final round of the Isuzu UTE A-League regular season, the top six places are now locked in for the 2026 Finals Series.

Adelaide United booked a Semi-Final spot after scoring an injury-time winner in the final game of the regular season, with Luka Jovanovic scoring twice to beat Melbourne City 2-1 at AAMI Park, and jump into second place after an action-packed final day.

The result is also expected to secure Adelaide’s play-off spot in the AFC Champions League Elite competition, as the Reds went undefeated in their final ten matches to finish second and earn the week off.

The Reds are joined in the Semi-Finals by first-time Premiers, Newcastle Jets, who locked in a week off after their historic, table-topping season in the Isuzu UTE A-League.

The Jets will look to complete a league-first domestic treble as they begin their campaign in the second week of the Finals Series against the lowest placed Elimination Final winner.

The first week of the Isuzu UTE A-League 2026 Finals Series will see two blockbuster Elimination Finals.

Auckland will host Melbourne City in the first Elimination Final with last season’s Premiers taking on the reigning Champions at Go Media Stadium on Saturday 2nd May.

Melbourne Victory will then host Sydney FC in a massive Big Blue Elimination Final at AAMI Park later that evening.

This will be the first time the foundation clubs will face each other in the Finals Series since the Isuzu UTE A-League 2019 Semi-Final.
