Western United, Recent FormWestern United won't feel too deflated by the 2-0 home defeat to Central Coast Mariners, given that their opponents sit a full 10 places above them in the league table. Their share of possession in that meeting was 46%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 0 of which were on target, in contrast to Central Coast Mariners, who had 13 shots on goal with 6 on target.
John Aloisi will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 11 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 11 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 22 of their 24 games.
They have put together a nice run of home form recently, managing to go undefeated in 5 matches out of their last 6 at Mars Stadium and recording 3 wins in that same period.
Noah Botić will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Western United.
Adelaide United, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Adelaide United players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Macarthur FC. They achieved 47% possession in that match and had 25 strikes at goal, with 10 hitting the target, up against Macarthur FC's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 10 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded at least one goal in 9 of their 10 games on the road.
They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Adelaide United, Nestor Irankunda will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
After a good 4-1 win for Adelaide United in this pair's last league encounter, Western United will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
