With their 5 point advantage in the league table, Sydney fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Perth Glory.

Insights:
  • Sydney have the fewest conceded goals (13) in A-League
  • Perth Glory have the fewest clean sheets (0) in A-League

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the A-League. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Melbourne Victory.

Perth Glory have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 3900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Sydney form and stats

Sydney, who have the fewest conceded goals (13) in A-League, have collected 11 points from their A-League home games so far after 3-2-2. Hopes of three in a row are alive for Sydney after consecutive victories at their own ground.

Happy days for Sydney in their previous game, a A-League match away at Melbourne Victory (placed 12th) that ended with a 3-0 victory. Heartbreak before that as Sydney lost 0-1 at Adelaide United's place.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Sydney's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played six games, won five matches, drawn zero and lost one.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the A-League game versus Melbourne City in only three days. This game is also played here at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium.

Sydney are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 7 goals in 7 games. From these home matches, Sydney have conceded only 6 goals.
