With all due respect to Perth Glory and Melbourne Victory fans, last weekend's results have left us with the perfect top four, with two mouth watering clashes coming up in week two of the finals.

Although it is worth pointing out that these four sides finished one thru four on the competition ladder, that stat doesn't always truly represent the best sides in the competition.

Adelaide United, the Western Sydney Wanderers, Brisbane Roar and Melbourne City have, over the course of 2015/16, been THE best four sides and deserve to be there with a shot at contesting the Grand Final.

Premiers Adelaide United have been the form team of the competition for more than two months, and have made 2016 their own.

At one point, earlier in the season, it looks as though they'd be more likely to be drawn into a battle with the Mariners to avoid finishing last rather than competing in the finals.

Although they scored plenty of goals, their premiership winning campaign was built on their stingy defence.

Over their 27 games they conceded only the 28 goals. The next closest was the Wanderers and Victory who both conceded 33.

In comparison, last year's premiers, the Victory, conceded 31.

On the other end of the spectrum is the free-scoring Melbourne City, who banged in an incredible 63 goals, 14 more than both the Glory and Roar.

City probably dropped some games they should have won, however they also blew sides away and looked a mile ahead of their competition at times too.

This Friday's contest between City's attack and Adelaide's defence should make for one exciting contest, especially considering Adelaide's ability to score goals also.

United, after finishing in top spot have secured home ground advantage, which could be the deciding factor in an otherwise almost too hard to call fixture.

The Wanderers, who finished second after a horror 2014/15 season looked a far different side this campaign.

They finished just the one point behind the table-topping United, after winning more than half of their fixtures.

Despite the high finishing spot, the Wanderers would probably be a little disappointed to not have finished in top spot. Considering their finishing spot last season, that statement is far more positive than it sounds.

Mitch Nichols has been one of the buys of the season and has helped driven his side toward an attacking game-plan not seen at Wanderland previously.

Although they have achieved success previously, it has come on the back of a tight defence and a mentality of nicking a goal and sitting back. In 2015/16 they have been able to outplay sides and score some ripper goals.

That may be something they need to rely on this Sunday afternoon as they host the equally as exciting Brisbane Roar.

The Roar, who also won more than half their fixtures have scored more goals than their opponents, including three in their last meeting.

Brisbane, another side who didn't have a great 2014/15 season have looked like the Roar of old under John Aloisi.

Encouragingly their marquee man Thomas Broich looks to be rediscovering top form at the business end of the season, however this Roar side is far from a one-man outfit.

This fixture will see two sides who both finished on identical points clash for a shot at the Grand Final, which depending on Friday night's result, could include a hosting gig.

Looking at the final four teams standing, only one failed to win more than half their fixtures, and even they missed out by just the one win.

Between them they've scored mountains of goals, formed some of the competition's best defences, and contain the form teams.

It's not often a final four is perfect, but this could be just about as close as it gets.

Any of the four sides can lift the trophy next weekend and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who count mount a case against any of those four sides deservingly doing so.
