Perth Glory vs Macarthur Preview

The hosts are in search of their second league win of the season while the visitors are pursuing their seventh victory. Perth Glory will seek to address a poor run of results as they welcome Macarthur for their fourth home game of the new campaign. Macarthur succeeded 4-0 in their previous visit.

The Glory have won once, drawn twice and lost five times, which leaves them bottom of the standings with five points ahead of matchday nine. Head coach Alen Stajcic, who was appointed in August, has urged his squad to fight their way out of the slump. However, the team appear too weak to compete.

Macarthur will hope to return to winning ways after conceding their first defeat of the season against Wellington Phoenix (0-3) in their previous game. It was an unexpected home setback that exposed some weaknesses in the visitors’ set-up, notably in the defense. Coach Mile Sterjovski will likely use the upcoming game to assess his fix.

The Bulls are faring better than last term when they finished bottom of the table. They currently sit fourth, level on 15 points with third-placed Western Sydney Wanderers. Macarthur boast four wins, three draws and one defeat. They could leap to the top of the standings if they win on Saturday and if other results are favorable.
