A Melbourne father has been viciously assaulted outside his home while his family slept inside.

The 42-year-old truck driver was walking to his truck outside his home on Catees Street in Clyde North just after 5am when he was confronted by two men.

CCTV footage shows the first man approach the victim and knock him to the ground with a single punch.

The victim’s sister claims the men left the Melbourne father “for dead”. (Nine)

A second man appears and the pair continu to punch and kick the victim while he lay defenceless on the ground.

The victim’s sister Suman described how the brazen thugs “basically left him for dead” after the early morning attack.

“There was blood everywhere; in the street, in the house, all over his face,” Suman said.

“They made sure before they left, even kicking him in the head, that he wasn’t moving.

“So they were here basically just to kill him.”

Chilling CCTV footage shows the violent attack unfold. (Nine)

Once the offenders fled, the victim managed to pick himself off the ground and stumble to his front door.

His family rushed him to hospital, where he was treated for a fractured skull and a broken nose.

Police still searching for the offenders and the car they drove off in.

At this stage police believe it was a targeted attack.
