Perth Glory vs Macarthur Prediction
Perth Glory come into this one on the back of a slender 1-0 defeat of fellow strugglers and bottom-of-the-table, still winless Brisbane Roar in Queensland last weekend thanks to a 69th minute strike from David Williams. They do, though, remain a very poor side. They now face a Macarthur side that have started the campaign with three victories, three draws and three defeats as they begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting tucked inside the top-half of the 13-team table and a double chance bet in favour of the away team looks the way to go for this one.
