Western Sydney Wanderers v Perth Glory: match preview

Perth Glory can break a club record with a sixth straight victory if they take care of out-of-form Western Sydney Wanderers as Round 15 draws to a close this Sunday (kick off 6.30pm AEDT).

Tony Popovic's reigning Premiers have surged into third position courtesy of a club record-equalling five straight wins and will have eyes for all three points against a Wanderers outfit smarting from back-to-back defeats against Brisbane Roar and Wellington Phoenix.

The Red and Black have secured just one win from 10 matches – a 3-2 victory over Adelaide United on December 27 – and face an almighty test if they are to overturn the form book at Bankwest Stadium.

Popovic's return to Western Sydney adds another element of intrigue to a contest the Wanderers, and under pressure coach Markus Babbel, simply must gain a result from to give their season a kick.
