Victory were stunned in Saturday night's Australia Cup final against NPL Victoria side South Melbourne, conceding an equaliser in the final minutes of extra-time before going down on penalties.
Giovanni Savarese's side now must dust themselves off for a Matchday 2 showdown with FC Seoul, who are dominating in the K-League this term.
Seoul need just four points from their seven remaining games to secure the silverware, enjoying an 18-point buffer at the top of the table, winning 20 of their 31 games in the league.
However, Seoul suffered a surprise loss at home on Matchday 1 to Indonesian side Persib, so they will be determined to avoid back-to-back defeats here.
The Korean club couldn't have asked for a better time to face Victory, who are reeling from that Australia Cup final defeat and also preparing for the start of the new A-League season this weekend.
I'm backing Seoul to pile more misery on Victory in a game that features Under 2.5 goals.

After a 0-0 stalemate at the end of normal time, Victory went ahead five minutes into extra-time courtesy of Denis Genreau.
However, Victory couldn't hold on as South equalised with three minutes remaining before scoring all four of their penalties to secure a famous win in one of the biggest nights in Australian club football history.
Victory will be looking for their first win in this season's AFC Champions League 2 after being held to a 1-1 draw in Vietnam by Viettel on Matchday 1.
Melbourne Victory Team News
Brazilian winger Clarismario opened the scoring for Victory in that opening draw with Viettel and should hold down a starting spot on the wing.
Uruguayan attacker Guillermo May is an option to come into the starting side after a lively performance off the bench in the Australia Cup.
Melbourne Victory Possible Starting XI (4-2-3-1): Jack Duncan; Joshua Inserra, Tom Lockyer, Jason Davidson, Franco Lino; Jordi Valadon, Xavier Stella; Keegan Jelacic, Matthew Grimaldi, Clarismario Santos; Guillermo May

FC Seoul are enjoying a tremendous season domestically as they chase a seventh K-League title.
With two rounds remaining before the league splits, Seoul only need to take four points from the next seven fixtures to be crowned champions.
