PERTH GLORY VS MELBOURNE CITY PREDICTION

Perth Glory have struggled in each of the last few seasons and are one of the favourites to pick up the wooden spoon by finishing at the bottom of the expanded 13-team Australian A League table. They are up against a decimated Melbourne City side that have shown spirit and improvement in the opening weeks of the season and that spirit may well be enough to see them clear in Western Australia this weekend.
