And the club wants it fans in full voice as it looks to get its season back on track.
It's been a long time since Western United hit the field in a competitive hit-out, after last weekend's home clash with Sydney FC was postponed due to the snap five-day lockdown.
Prior to that, United looked to be getting the better of top-team Central Coast before the Mariners turned the match on its head in four minutes, recording a 3-2 victory.
It's left United with just one win from five match, coupled with two draws.
This week's match-up looms as another big test against second placed Macarthur FC. Unlike United, Macarthur FC has had a fairly charmed run through the season, having already completed eight matches, included a 4-0 of Adelaide United in the previous round.
Tonight's match at Mars Stadium starts at 5.05pm.
