Perth Glory, Recent FormPerth Glory will have been reasonably pleased with their 4-4 draw against Adelaide United, not least because of the valuable point gained. During that encounter they had 48% possession and had 12 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 10 of their 24 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 11 and seen valuable points lost. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. They have produced a defensive record this season that they won't be proud of, having conceded at least 1 goal in 22 of their 25 league matches.
Perth will take some comfort from having only lost 1 of their last 6 games, but having managed just 2 wins shows there's room for improvement.
On an individual basis, Adam Taggart will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Perth Glory's last 6 league games.
Western United, Recent FormWith Melbourne City sitting a clear 14 places above them in the table, Western United won't feel totally dejected with their 3-1 home defeat by them last time out. Their share of possession in that meeting was 30%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target. Melbourne City had 12 shots on goal with 7 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches. They have found it hard to grab league points away from home of late, primarily due to their back line shipping at least 1 goal in 11 of their last 12 away games.
With 3 defeats and just 2 wins from their last 6 outings, this cannot be regarded as a good run of form.
Noah Botić is the man of the moment at Western United right now and the toast of their travelling support, having notched up 3 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league.
It was one to forget for Perth Glory last time they met Western United in the league, falling to a 2-1 defeat.
The West will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 5 encounters with Perth.
Western Utd man Lachlan Wales will be confident about extending his scoring record against Perth, having hit the netting 3 times in the last 5 times they have met in the league.
With no real injury worries, Perth manager Ruben Zadkovich will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Western Utd manager John Aloisi has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
