Sydney FC welcome Perth Glory to the Sydney Football Stadium for an Australian A-League matchday 26 fixture on Sunday.
The hosts are coming into the game on the back of a 1-0 defeat away to Macarthur FC. The Bulls were reduced to 10 men following Ivan Vujica's 37th-minute red card but broke the deadlock in first-half injury time through Jed Drew. Macarthur were reduced to nine men midway through the second half but held on to claim maximum points.
Perth Glory, meanwhile, suffered a 4-3 defeat at home to Western United. Matthew Grimaldi, Riku Danzaki, Abel Walatee and Oli Lavale scored for the visitors while Adam Taggart's brace and David Williams' injury-time goal was not enough to complete a comeback.
