Player to watch: Steven Ugarkovic
Why do we have Steven Ugarkovic down as the player to watch in our Melbourne City vs Perth Glory prediction? Because he scored a brace for his team in the last official game against Perth Glory. Moreover, he is the 2nd-best finisher for his team this season, with three goals since the start of the campaign.
Second player to watch: Lachlan Wales
Adam Taggart may be the visitors’ top scorer, but Lachlan Wales is also doing his best. He already opened his score tab for the Glory this season and managed to add an assist to his tally.
