Macarthur FC, Recent FormThe Macarthur FC squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Perth Glory, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 38% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Perth Glory who had 13 attempts and 4 on target.
Having lost 14 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Mile Sterjorvski will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 6 goals they scored. They have shown that they have a consistent appetite for goals at home of late, having clocked up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches at Campbelltown Stadium. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 games.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
Moudi Najjar will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Macarthur FC.
Western Sydney Wanderers, Recent FormThe 3-2 home defeat to Adelaide United will not have sat easily with the Western Sydney Wanderers squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. They achieved 52% possession in that match and had 13 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Adelaide United's tally of 19 efforts at goal, 7 of which were on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 16 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 8 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. Up front, they have been showing a certain level of consistency in breaching their opponents' defences, with goals netted in 5 of their last 6 outings. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 away games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win. Their away form in the early part of the season has produced an unusually high number of draws, with 5 draws in 11 away league games.
On an individual basis, Brandon Borrello will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Western Sydney Wanderers' last 6 league games.
Macarthur FC will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Western Sydney Wanderers, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 4-0 defeat.
The last 4 matches between Macarthur and The Wanderers show that Macarthur have let in at least one goal on each occasion. In their last 2 league meetings with The Wanderers, Macarthur have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal.
Macarthur have lost the last 2 times they've faced The Wanderers in the league and have failed to win in their last 3 encounters.
With no real injury worries, Macarthur manager Mile Sterjorvski will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
The Wanderers manager Mark Rudan has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
