The Wellington Phoenix are playing host to Auckland FC tonight. 

The teams are facing off in the A-Leagues first Kiwi derby in what’s expected to be a tough match. 

Piney caught up with Phoenix defender Isaac Hughes ahead of the big game. 

“I think everyone knows it's a big game. I think there's no point pretending that it's not.” 

“When you get out there onto the pitch, I think as long as everyone's focused on their jobs like, I see no reason why it will impact us.”
