Central Coast Mariners team news and form: Champions need to do better
The team registered three consecutive draws in recent weeks and is now down to 9th place. Will the players be able to pick themselves from the ground against the Glory? Seeing as some key players are out with nasty injuries, we doubt it.

Player to watch: Trent Sainsbury
If Central Coast Mariners are to defend their A-League throne, Trent Sainsbury will have to step up his game. He has been a disappointment so far this season, as the visitors’ defensive record plummets. However, Hearts’ captain is an experienced player and we are sure he has the required arsenal to prove our Perth Glory vs Central Coast Mariners predictions correct.
Second player to watch: Jarrod Carluccio
Winger Carluccio scored only one goal this season. This player needs to do better if he wants to remain among coach Zdrilic’s starters.
