With a smirk on his face and his tongue slightly in cheek, Melbourne City W-League coach Joe Montemurro pondered his response.The question, asked at the opening of Citys first-rate womens facility, was how City would fare in Sundays W-League derby.Well weve beaten them everywhere else ... A-League, National Youth League, he said.Nah, its just another game, he concluded in jest, to claps from the crowd.Montemurro was sharing a joke among supporters but the rivalry between the two clubs is no laughing matter.Its a source of pride to those from the light blue side of Melbourne that they keep winning against those in navy blue.Tim Cahills golazo helped City to a 4-1 A-League derby win in October, and John van t Schips side dumped Victory out of the FFA Cup 10 days later.The next generation claimed the NYL points last weekend with a 3-0 win at Lakeside Stadium.So its over to the City women to continue their winning streak, and on paper it looks a lay-down misere.Without a bevvy of senior internationals, City still beat Victory 2-1 in their only meeting last year - the closest City has come to losing a match against any side in their short history.Midfield talisman and assistant coach Jess Fishlock said there was no lack of appetite for another derby success.Im really, really hungry. Im starving, she said.In their two matches to date this season, City have emerged winners without showing the impregnability that characterised their debut season.Both Newcastle and Canberra were dispatched by a single goal, which surely means Victory are in with a chance at AAMI Park on Sunday?Not so fast.Fishlock, a decorated Welsh international, says she expects the City team to get stronger.Even more exciting for me as an assistant coach (is) we havent got all our group together, she said.Weve faced injuries and not everyones in yet so we still cant quite get our absolute best team together.City will miss last years golden boot winner Larissa Crummer (ankle) and American import Lauren Barns (wrist), while Victory will be without Selin Kuralay (hamstring).Montemurros stocks will be boosted further when fellow US striker Beverly Yanez arrives next week.Knowing where we are right now and weve pulled out the wins that we have already without having everyone (available) or fully-fit, that is exciting, Fishlock said.
