Perth Glory Preview – Can Perth recover from recent poor run to win their first match in five?
Western United Preview – Are newcomers Western United set to make it three A-League wins for the first time?
For a team competing in their first season at this level, Western United can be very happy with their efforts so far. It’s not always been easy but they have been able to show real desire to always be in and around the playoffs which would have been an aspiration of theirs. United come into this game on the back of two remarkable victories against Central Coast Mariners and Adelaide United. A 6-2 home win was followed by an excellent 5-1 success on the road.
The win in Adelaide was vital as well due to the fact it meant they leapfrogged that rival into sixth spot.

Those 11 goals scored over the last two games are just under a third of Western United’s total goals for the season and the hope will be they can continue that sort of form into the next few games.
The battle for the top six is going to go to the wire with United level on points with Adelaide and one ahead of Western Sydney Wanderers. United also have the advantage of having a game in hand over those teams whilst a win here would put them to within a point of Perth Glory.

Key Facts – Perth Glory vs Western United Betting Tip
- Perth lost their first home game in six when going down 3-2 at the hands of Melbourne City
- Western United come into this game on the back of two wins, scoring 11 goals in the process
- The sides drew 1-1 when they met earlier in the season in Geelong
Perth do have the extra experience and quality but are not in the best of form. With Western United’s recent goal scoring splurge this is a game which could be plenty open. Perth Glory’s home games average over four goals which five further support to seeing a few here.
Over 2.5 goals looks appealing but at the odds, the selection is over 3.5. This would be a winning bet in five of Perth’s last six home matches.
