Perth Glory form and stats

No payout for Perth Glory in their previous match, an away game at Melbourne City that ended in defeat 0-4. As you see from the result above, Perth suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Adelaide United.

Western United form and stats

Things could have gone better for Western United in their A-League away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

Western United play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-2 victory visiting Wellington Phoenix (placed 8th). That win felt nice as this team had gone five league rounds without victory. What a finish in the last match, as Western United came back from being down 0-2 and secured a very satisfying victory through Diamanti's goal in the 90th minute. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Aloisi when Diamanti scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 67th minute. Tratt, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.84. Tratt scored one goal and won 6 of 9 duels.

A 2-4 loss hosting Adelaide United before that.

Will both teams score at least one goal each? This side's most recent statistics suggest that, having completed 6 league matches in a row with one or more goals from each side.

Western are struggling defensively in their away games, having conceded 6 goals in these matches.

Head 2 Head

Head to head statistics (for the previous seven meetings): Perth Glory won one game, one match ended in a draw and Western United managed five wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / four.
