Preview:
Newcastle put together their best performance of the season against Brisbane last week, but they will have a tough task trying to back it up against the league leading Perth Glory.
Picking up another win here will be tough though, as the Glory have been a bogey side for them, with just two wins from their past 20 games.
Add in the fact that the Glory are flying at the moment, with five wins and two draws and the visitors do appear to be offering good value as slight underdogs.
