Friday's action in the 5th round of the Australian A-League will see Perth Glory welcome Macarthur to HBF Park in what promises to be a compelling encounter.
Perth Glory head into the fixture buoyed by a narrow 1-0 victory over bottom-placed, still-winless Brisbane Roar last weekend. The decisive moment came in the 69th minute when David Williams found the back of the net in Queensland, securing a much-needed win for Perth.
Macarthur, on the other hand, have shown mixed form early in the season, registering three wins, three draws, and three losses. They enter this round positioned comfortably in the top half of the 13-team standings, and the visitors will fancy their chances of coming away with at least a point in this matchup.
