Victory can break horrific ACL hoodoo - Muscat

Melbourne Victory can break their duck on the road in the Asian Champions League despite the might of their Chinese opponent, according to coach Kevin Muscat.

The A-League side faces China Super League powerhouse Guangzhou Evergrande at Tianhe Stadium on Wednesday night, having never won any of their previous 20 ACL games away from home.

With the likes of ex-Barcelona ace Paulinho and Brazilian winger Anderson Talisca in Evergrande's lineup, it's going to be no easy task for the A-League champions in front of a crowd likely to be pushing 40,000.
