A 1-1 draw and a point gained against Melbourne Victory in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent result for Macarthur FC last time out.  They achieved 42% possession in that match and had 12 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Melbourne Victory's tally of 20 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.  

It's fair to say that manager Mile Sterjorvski will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 7 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.  

Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 home games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.

Last time out, Adelaide United left content aftera 3-1 away win against Western United  In that game they had 46% possession and managed 22 attempts on goal, with 6 on target, compared to Western United who had 23 attempts and 7 on target.  

While they have been strong in attack with 15 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 11 at the other end which has led to points being dropped.  Their goal scoring streak away from home now stands at 8 games in a row, but they've conceded at least one goal in their 17 most recent trips.  

Their unbeaten run away from home now sits at 8 games in a row.  

Nestor Irankunda has scored 3 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Macarthur FC.
