In their last 10 matches, Macarthur have picked up just two victories, one of which came at home against a struggling Brisbane Roar side, but they managed to prove they have what it takes to go toe-to-toe with one of the better sides in the division last time out. It was a decent start to the campaign for the side now managed by Mile Sterjovski, picking up 17 points in their first 11 games, but their form has really tailed off since the departure of former boss Dwight Yorke. Macarthur have also struggled on their travels for the vast majority of the season, picking up just eight points, the joint-fewest of any A-League side, failing to win away in the entirety of 2023.Ī very poor defensive record has also cost the Bulls, conceding 39 goals in 21 games, by far and away the most of any side in the division, largely due to the fact they have let in 14 goals in their last three away matches.

Last time out, the Glory looked to be heading towards another defeat on the road, trailing at Newcastle Jets until Ryan Williams struck a 97th-minute equaliser to level the game up at 2-2, gaining what could prove to be a very important point. That said, away form has been a real problem for Perth, winning just once on their travels all season, with that coming all the way back in October, in a 2-1 win at Central Coast Mariners, and that record will have to improve if they are to make a late playoff push. Ruben Zadkovich's side have also been very impressive at home, which bodes well heading into Saturday's game, picking up 19 points at HBF Park, the sixth-best record in the division, having also played one fewer game than two of the sides above them.

The main problem for the Glory last season was their record in front of goal, scoring just 20 in the entire campaign, but they have already managed to score 28 in their 21 matches so far this term. Perth finished bottom of the A-League table in the 2021-22 campaign, managing to acquire just 18 points in 26 games, so this season has already been an improvement, regardless of whether they are able to make a late push for the playoffs.
