A "SORE" Besart Berisha is expected to be fit for Melbourne Victory's AAMI Park clash with Central Coast on Friday night.
It's just as well as coach Kevin Muscat will need every fit player he can get for the Mariners game as international withdrawals again rock his side.
It will be a quiet week at Victory with Mark Milligan (Socceroos), Daniel Georgievski (Macedonia) and Jason Geria, Scott Galloway and Connor Pain (Olyroos) all away on international duty.

Kosta Barbarouses was left out of New Zealand's squad, but at this stage it is touch and go whether the back injury that prevented the winger travelling to South Korea will heal sufficiently to allow him to play for Victory this week.
Berisha came off late in the 2-2 draw with Adelaide on Saturday night, pointing to his upper left leg as he asked to be substituted.
He will be monitored during the week, but Victory officials were yesterday confident he will be fit to play.

Youngster Dylan Murnane is set to come in for just his fifth start of the season, while one of Leigh Broxham and Rashid Mahazi will likely occupy the right back position against the Mariners, leaving the other to partner Carl Valeri in midfield.
In the event both Barbarouses and Berisha miss, Andrew Nabbout would likely start and youth team replacements would have to be called upon to fill the two remaining spots on the bench alongside Jesse Makarounas, Jordan Brown and goalkeeper Lawrence Thomas.

Veteran shot-stopper Nathan Coe said yesterday the players left behind were not panicking about the shortage of troops for the game.
"We've been in this position before, so we know what to expect," Coe said.
"I think it's a testament to Musky and what he's done with the squad that every time we do have people missing the people who come in to play do a great job.
"I don't think we've ever been let down by anyone who's come in. We've had this situation before and we've still played fantastic games.
"So it's not really anything new for us. We'll just go out there and do what we can."
