Western Sydney Wanderers vs Perth Glory Prediction

The Perth Glory did not have a great outing against Adelaide United and conceded five goals over the weekend. The Western Sydney Wanderers will be looking to exploit the away side's defensive weaknesses and the likes of Mitchell Duke and Simon Cox may well have an excellent outing.

Perth has plenty of attacking options of its own and with Uruguayan striker Bruno Fornaroli in excellent touch, the Glory will try to put the home side under early pressure. Both sides have several chinks in their armour that are likely to come to the fore in tomorrow's fixture.

Prediction: Western Sydney Wanderers 2-2 Perth Glory
