Melbourne Victory, Recent FormMelbourne Victory will not be too disheartened with their 2-1 away defeat at the hands of Melbourne City who sit so many places above them in the table. In that game they had 32% possession and managed 4 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Melbourne City who had 2 attempts and 1 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. 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 are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.
On an individual basis, Bruno Fornaroli has scored in each of Melbourne Victory's last 5 league games at AAMI Park.
Perth Glory, Recent FormPerth Glory will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 home win against Macarthur FC. Their share of possession in that meeting was 62%, while racking up 13 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Macarthur FC had 10 shots on goal with 1 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Ruben Zadkovich will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 9 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 9 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 13 games. They, for whatever reason, are unable to keep a clean sheet away from home, having not done so for the past 22 games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 8 games.
On an individual basis, David Williams will be looking to cause Melbourne Victory some problems having scored 2 goals in Perth Glory's last 6 away games in the league.
Melbourne Victory suffered the disappointment of a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Perth Glory the last time they met in the league.
Playing at home, Victory have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Perth.
Perth player Adam Taggart will be feeling confident about recording goals against Victory ahead of this encounter, with a scoring record of 3 goals from their last 5 meetings.
With no real injury worries, Victory manager Tony Popović will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Perth manager Ruben Zadkovich has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
