Perth Glory team news and form: The Glory’s manager must react

David Zdriliv won’t be able to count on several of his best performers for the game against Macarthur.

The same goes for Nikola Mileusnic, Mustafa Amini, and right-back Brandon O’Neill.

Player to watch: Marin Jakolis

As we stated earlier in our Perth Glory vs Macarthur prediction, Jakolis is a force of nature this season. He bagged four goals since the start of the campaign and we feel like he will be able to do some more damage this week as well.

Second player to watch: David Williams

Williams scored the winning goal for this team in last week’s match versus the Roar. However, we don’t think he will be able to do much against in-form Bulls on the 27th of December.
