Melbourne City can pull two wins clear in top spot when they travel west to take on Perth Glory. Follow the action with live scores right here on The Roar from 9:20pm (AEST).
It appears the Premier’s Plate is City’s to lose, with the gap between themselves and the second-placed Central Coast Mariners now a full three points, plus a whopping 19 goal difference. Just as crucially, they have two extra games in hand.
Their recent 3-1 defeat of the struggling Newcastle Jets was as comprehensive as wins come, though the Jets’ late goal should serve to keep Patrick Kisnorbo and his men far from complacent.
HBF Park has been a fortress for the Glory in the past, but not so in 2020/21. They’ve won just three of seven games at home for the season, with a 3-1 loss to the Phoenix in their most recent match there.
They do have a game in hand on the rest of the competition, so their season certainly isn’t over: however, you suspect they’ll need to cause an upset here to be any chance of making a late finals run.

You need to understand the question before giving an answer :laughing:

Yes Maclaren does. But, your question was who else is doing the scoring. I showing you to take away both main scorers of each club, Melb City scores 23 goals while Adelaide scores 25 goals, so there is not much difference if you took away both one man teams.

not that much of a difference lol? we must've gone to different schools because our maths is miles apart. maclaren is scoring nearly 50% of the goals, juric less than 25%

Correct. All it means is that City are a better team with a forward who can bag a few more than forwards in other teams. That's how you win championships. Just ask Messi and Agüero :silly:

One man team???? Lets look at this statistically. Melbourne City scored 45 goals, Maclaren 22 goals, rest of team scores 23 goals Adelaide United scored 32 goals, Juric 7 goals, rest of team scores 25 goals. Not that much of a difference, so both Adelaide & Melbourne City one man teams, just Maclaren much better then Juric at the one man team.

all this hard work for city will be nothing comes finals time, when they lose several players. i'm not sure who scores the goals when maclaren is away, there are other players in city that can score goals right? one man team if ever i saw one lol
