The Melbourne Victory and Adelaide United will be playing each other twice before the Asian Champions League begins, and then two more times during the group stage.

Hardly surprising news, but it is disappointing to hear that the matches will be behind closed doors, much like the Socceroos practice match on the weekend. I have no doubt that a friendly against Adelaide could draw a reasonable crowd - certainly enough to make Olympic Park come alive.

But alas, it seems the club are intent on making fans wait until March 12.

The dates

• Game 1: Wednesday 27th Feb in Melbourne (3.00pm kick-off)
• Game 2: Tuesday 4th March in Adelaide (1.30pm kick-off)
• Game 3: Tuesday 1st April in Adelaide (1.30pm kick-off)
• Game 4: Tuesday 15th April in Melbourne (3.00pm kick-off)
