Saturday’s A-League match at Sky Stadium features Wellington Phoenix take on Perth Glory, an away team. After defeating Central Coast Mariners 2-1 in the A-League, Wellington Phoenix will be hoping for more of the same, buoyed by their previous performance.
Wellington Phoenix had 45 percent possession and eight attempts at goal, three of which were successful. Alex Rufer (32′) and Oskar Zawada (40′) scored for Wellington Phoenix. Central Coast Mariners, on the other hand, had 18 shots on goal, but only six of them were successful. Central Coast Mariners scored via Béni Nkololo (92′).
Perth Glory defeated Melbourne Victory by a score of 3-1 in their most recent A-League match. Perth Glory had 49 percent possession and 12 shots, eight of which were successful. Ryan Williams (37′) and Adam Taggart (80′, 87′) scored for Perth Glory. Melbourne Victory had 15 shots on goal, three of which were successful. For Melbourne Victory, Josh Brillante scored (69′).
We think that Perth Glory will score against this Wellington Phoenix lineup, though it might not be as many goals as they will give up. Our prediction for this game is Wellington Phoenix leading 2-1 after 90 minutes in a close contest.
Prediction: Wellington Phoenix 2-1 Perth Glory
We can deduce from a review of their previous head-to-head matches, which date back to July 3, 2021, that Perth Glory has suffered a lot from these encounters. They haven’t won a single game, but Wellington Phoenix has dominated them, winning 67% of the games they’ve played.
During those matches, the two teams combined to score 17 goals, with 12 coming from The Nix and 5 from Glory. That amounts to an average of 2.83 goals scored per game. The last league match between these teams was on A-League match day 9, which took place on December 23, 2022. Perth Glory defeated Wellington Phoenix 1-0.
Perth Glory had 52 percent possession and 12 shots on goal, four of which were successful. David Williams, their sole player with a score of 22′, was recorded. The Wellington Phoenix made seven shots on goal, five of which were successful. Oskar Zawada scored (31′).
Because Wellington Phoenix’s coach Ufuk Talay only has one fitness issue to worry about, nearly everyone can be taken into consideration. Clayton Lewis won’t play because of a fractured kneecap.
Ruben Zadkovich, the manager of Perth Glory, has only one fitness issue to worry about because the team is mostly healthy. Due to issues with his Achilles tendon, Adrián Sardinero will not play.
Forget your Saturday sleep-in, cancel your cafe brunch, we've got a #DistanceDerby to get stuck into!
