Although Perth Glory FC is among the most solid home teams in the league, they are far from perfect. Their defence is not as good as expected with just 25% home clean sheets.
Melbourne City FC has picked up 13 points from the previous six league games. It is quite intriguing that they prefer playing on the road.
