Adelaide United vs Perth Glory Prediction

In a 13-team league, things should always be quite evenly matched and congested but this one does appear to be one of the more lobsided match-ups, at least on paper. Adelaide United look like they may be capable of launching a sustained challenge right at the top of the regular season A League table. Perth, on the other hand, finished second-bottom last season and have collected just one point from their opening five matches of this campaign. The form, as well as their home advantage, means Adelaide are firm favourites for this one.
