The President of Fiji Football Association, Rajesh Patel is expected to be in the Oceania Football Conference meeting tonight in Zurich where a decision will be made on who they will vote for in the FIFA Presidential election.

New Zealand Herald has reported that New Zealand Football CEO Andy Martin will not reveal who NZ Football will vote for in the FIFA presidential election tonight but they are considering abstaining from the vote.

Martin says a decision on the vote will be made after an Oceania Football Conference meeting tonight.

NZ Football have previously backed Sepp Blatter but Martin won't say if he has their support following the corruption scandal that has hit FIFA over the last few days.

Ali bin Al‑Hussein from Jordan is the only other person running against Blatter.

He says they have done very well under the current regime but that's not to say things can't change.

Meanwhile according to stuff.co, the Football Federation of Australia will vote to oust FIFA president Sepp Blatter in the wake of the latest corruption scandal.

Chairman, Frank Lowy announced they will throw their support behind Blatter's only challenger, Jordanian Prince Ali bin Al‑Hussein tonight.
