Preview:
Friday night marks the beginning of the round and an interesting fixture between the Victory and Glory looms.
The Victory’s horror start to the season continued with a 3-1 loss at Adelaide and they are now staring down the barrel of an unwanted hat-trick of defeats. Last week’s loss was probably also their most comprehensive and they would need to improve tenfold to take anything from this.
Slow by their own standards I’m sure, but the Glory have been fair for the most part in 2019/20 and will be confident in their chances of beating the Victory. Last week’s loss to Sydney FC was hefty, but this is a big drop in class for them and a terrific opportunity, which I think they’ll take.
