Perth Glory are tipped to win at home against Adelaide United in A-League Round 3, with over 2.5 goals expected in the match. Adelaide enter the fixture following a disappointing week, losing to Lion City Sailors in the ACL 2 and surrendering a lead against Sydney. Perth, though winless, have shown encouraging signs in their defeats and now benefit from home advantage. Recent meetings between these sides have been high-scoring, and both teams have several absentees. Adelaide’s quick turnaround and poor recent form further support the prediction of a Perth win with at least three total goals.

Perth Glory vs Adelaide United A-League Round 3 Tips & Prediction


Perth Glory are backed to secure all three points at home against Adelaide United in a game that features Over 2.5 goals on Sunday night to conclude A-League Round 3 action.

Adelaide have been poor over the last week, losing from a winning position against Sydney before a hugely disappointing defeat to Lion City Sailors in the ACL 2 at home on Thursday. Perth remain winless, but there's been encouraging signs in both defeats in the A-League this term and I'm confident they can emerge triumphant in this one.

Perth Glory Form Analysis

Perth have lost their opening two games of the season, but they had their chances in both.

Glory were unlucky to concede a late penalty to fall 2-1 against Macarthur before last week's defeat to Brisbane by the same score.

Stefan Colakovski, Pieter Jacobsz and Tom Lawrence all missed golden opportunites as Perth created three big chances, but only managed one shot on target from seven.

Adelaide United Form Analysis

Adelaide have only managed five wins from their last 16 games in all competitions dating back to the end of last season.

The Reds opened their A-League campaign with a 2-1 defeat away to Sydney last week. Brody Burkitt scored a fortuitous opening goal of the game, but Adelaide faded in the second half, conceding twice.

Things went from bad to worse on Thursday night, with Adelaide's perfect start to the ACL 2 coming to an end as they went down 2-0 at home to Singapore champions Lion City Sailors.
