Perth Glory vs Western United Prediction
Perth Glory come into this one on the back of a 3-0 hammering at the hands of Macarthur last weekend. They have managed just one win in their ten matches so far this season as the hover above bottom-of-the-table Brisbane Roar. They now face a Western United side that have propelled themselves into the top-half as they come into this one on the back of three successive victories with a slender 1-0 defeat of the aforementioned Brisbane Roar the other day and Western United remain the firm favourites for this one in Western Australia.
