Brisbane Roar got a head start on their A-League return last week and held Sydney FC to a 1-1 draw in their previous game. The hosts are rooted to the bottom of the league table at the moment and will need to turn their campaign around.

Perth Glory, on the other hand, are in 10th place in the A-League standings and have plenty of work to do in the coming months. The Western Australians have not played a league game in over 40 days and have a point to prove in this fixture.
