Auckland FC has announced the second Kiwi Clasico against the Wellington Phoenix is a sell-out.
The two New Zealand clubs meet for the second time at Auckland's Go Media Stadium on Saturday (kick-off 5pm) in Round 7 of the A-League, with more than 26,000 fans expected at Mt Smart.

"We are now completely sold out of single-match tickets to Saturday’s game at Go Media Stadium," the club said in a press release.
"That means there will be more than 26,000 people soaking in the atmosphere and watching the Black Knights aim to go undefeated for the sixth game straight.
"If you’re still desperate to get to the game, the only option remaining is a pro-rata membership ticket – giving you access to this and all remaining home games."
Earlier in the week, Auckland FC announced the opening of the North Bank at the stadium - and associated family ticket packages - to allow capacity to be increased by almost 1000.
The club aimed for a crowd of 26,253, coincidentally just one more than attended the first Kiwi Clasico on November 3.
Auckland FC, currently top of the A-League table and riding a five-match winning streak, along with five consecutive clean-sheets, to start their existence, defeated the Phoenix 2-0 at Wellington's Sky Stadium.
Sky Sport announced the match will be simulcast on Sky Sport 1 and Sky Open, the pay-TV network's free-to-air channel.
