Perth Glory team news and form: More of the same from Perth

It took Perth Glory exactly one game to reach the bottom of the table in the A-League. Macarthur demolished them 6-1 at Campbelltown Sports Stadium last week. And seeing as the Glory’s manager won’t be able to use Josh Risdon, Nicholas Pennington, and Mustafa Amini, we believe our top Perth Glory vs Wellington Phoenix predictions will surely succeed.

Predicted lineup: Sail (GK), Canga, Lebib, Majekodunmi, Lisolajski, Faisal, O’Neill, Bodnar, Ayoama, Taggart & Gomulka

Player to watch: Kosta Barbarouses

Barbarouses was one of the top finishers for his team last season. He already opened his score tab for Wellington Phoenix in 2024 and we can’t wait to see him in action against Perth Glory. Throughout his career, he managed to score a couple of goals at HBF Park already.
