An important duel in the bottom section of the Npl Western Australia, with both Perth and Balcatta experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 10th and the visitors in 11th place.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.

Perth form and stats

Perth's struggle is real here with only 4 points collected from 6 Npl Western Australia games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-1-4.

Perth drew their last game, also a home match. Sorrento was the opponent, 1-1 the score. Prior to that, an away loss at ECU Joondalup.

The manager R. Falzon will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Inglewood United in only four days.

The Perth fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 7 in 6 matches. Perth have conceded 10 from these games.

Balcatta form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Balcatta so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 0-3-3 (win-draw-lose). Recent form does not give Balcatta much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Perth will be a tough nut to crack. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Balcatta have lost on their last two travels.

There might be some fixture complaints from Balcatta as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Npl Western Australia match against ECU Joondalup (0-3). A 1-2 loss hosting Inglewood United before that.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Npl Western Australia trip to Bayswater City.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Balcatta as they have only managed to score 5 times from 6 away games in the league. For Balcatta, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.
