Welcome to A-League and Central Coast Mariners - Perth Glory. In this preview and news article you'll find numbers, scores, analysis, trends and stories!

Insights:
  • Central Coast Mariners have scored in all their home matches so far.
  • Perth Glory have the fewest scored goals (6) in A-League

These teams have little in common geographically as Perth Glory have to travel 4000 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.

Not much time to rest for the hosting team, as they featured in a A-League game only three days earlier. This match was also played here at Central Coast Stadium. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Perth Glory have had more rest.
