Match File: Glory v Wanderers

Getting our welcome New Year run of home games underway is an intriguing clash with high-flying Western Sydney Wanderers (click HERE for tickets).

So we’ve thrown together exactly the kind of crunchy and zesty stats salad you need as an appetiser for Friday night’s fixture!

Salim Khelifi has won more tackles (12) than any other Glory player this year, one ahead of Jack Clisby (11).
The talented Tunisian has also delivered the most crosses (34) and he is Glory’s most fouled player (25).

Of the 14 previous games played between the two clubs in WA, Glory have won seven to Wanderers’ two.
The last time the red-and-blacks headed back over east with three points in their hand luggage was in February 2014.

Andy Keogh is the overall top scorer in this fixture by a remarkable margin of six goals.
The Glory man netted 10 times (four of those goals coming in one game in May 2021), with Diego Castro and Brendon Santalab (who scored for both sides) next best on 4.

Glory have committed the fewest fouls in the A-League so far this season with 100.
Wanderers, in contrast, have been pinged on 156 occasions, the highest amount in the competition.

Western Sydney ‘keeper Lawrence Thomas currently leads the league for clean sheets with five.
The 30-year-old has been on the winning side in six of his 12 A-League appearances against Glory.

Liam Reddy is now three games away from overtaking Andy Keogh at the top of the club’s overall A-League appearances list.
The vastly-experienced ‘keeper has played 154 times for Glory, while Keogh appeared in 156 games.

Tonight’s rival Head Coaches, Ruben Zadkovich and Mark Rudan were teammates at Sydney FC from 2006 to 2007.
Rudan currently holds a 40% win rate in games he has managed against Glory.
