Show Preview
Perth Glory welcome Sydney FC to HBF Park on Wednesday evening in Round 12 of the 2018-19 A-League season. Join The Roar for live scores and coverage from 10pm (AEDT).
There is plenty of excitement surrounding this massive midweek match-up between two Premiers’ plate contenders.
Sydney FC returns to the west less than a month after securing a 2-1 win, inflicting Perth’s first and only defeat of the 2018-19 season.
A repeat of that result would lift Sydney level on points with the Glory at the top of the ladder.
However, Tony Popovic has since steadied the Perth ship, with impressive back-to-back victories on the road.
Steve Corica’s Sky Blues look back to their very best following four wins in a row and will fancy their chances at their favourite away ground.
Striker Adam Le Fondre has been instrumental in Sydney’s fine form, and scored his 10th A-League goal of the season against the Mariners on Friday.
Perth must contend with being without Chris Ikonomidis. Their top goalscorer is away on Asian Cup duty.
Prediction
Hard to call. Sydney would absolutely revel in making it 10 consecutive wins over Glory, and geez, that would surely have to hurt the Perth psyche.
This game has the makings of a classic. Glory must end the losing streak. Sydney must not lose. Desmond for me.
Perth Glory 2 – 2 Sydney FC.
