Dane Scarlett looks set to miss the second pre-season match of our Asia-Pacific Tour against Leicester City in Bangkok on Sunday (11am UK, 5pm local).

The young striker picked up a muscle injury in a training session in Perth, missed our Tour opener against West Ham and wasn’t involved in the squad’s Open Training session at the Rajamangala National Stadium on Saturday evening, local time.

Ange Postecoglou told us: “Dane will miss out again tomorrow but everyone else is okay.
