A-League Men preseason fixtures and results for every club image

Preseason is officially underway for A-League Men teams ahead of the 2022-23 season.

Melbourne sides dominated the competition in 2021-22 with Melbourne City crowned premiers before Western United claimed the championship.

Melbourne Victory, meanwhile, won the FFA Cup, now known as the Australia Cup, and also finished third in the league.

With a new season on the horizon, A-League Men clubs will be out to build some momentum in preseason and prove they are title contenders for the upcoming campaign.

The Australia Cup will offer some clubs the perfect way to prepare for the new season with some early silverware on the line.

The Sporting News will be keeping track of every side's preseason fixtures and results as they are confirmed.
