Stat Attack: Sydney FC v Glory

Glory v Sydney FC - Kosuke Ota challenging

If it only seems like a couple of weeks since we last crunched a batch of Sydney FC-related stats, that’s because it was.

But don’t despair, we’ve dug deep to unearth some more numerical nuggets to get you ready for Wednesday’s trip to Netstrata Jubilee Stadium…

On The Mark

Glory and Sydney FC are both ranked in the top four for passing accuracy this season.

Glory are on 83% and the Sky Blues on 85%, while Macarthur FC lead the way on 85.1%.

Mixed Fortunes

Glory v Roar 2021 - Bruno Fornaroli solo celebration

Glory’s leading scorer Bruno Fornaroli has found the net six times in his 12 career appearances against Sydney FC.

But the Uruguayan has only been on the winning side in one of those fixtures.

Symmetrical Sydney

Sydney FC have an identical record at home and on the road so far this term.

Steve Corica’s side have won six, drawn four and lost four of their 14 games, with three wins, two draws and two defeats at home and the same breakdown of results away.

Lynchpin Lachman

Darryl Lachman close-up

Darryl Lachman is leading the way for Glory in a string of defensive categories this year, including tackles attempted (29), clearances (43), blocks (10) and interceptions (17).

Memorable Moment

Glory’s last away win over the Sky Blues came in February 2016.

Andy Keogh and Chris Harold fired the men in purple into a two-goal lead before ex-Glory man Shane Smeltz pulled one back for the hosts.

Killa Goes Clear

Neil Kilkenny - quiet smile

Neil Kilkenny is now clear at the top of the assists and chances created table with 34 and seven respectively.

Interestingly, Sydney FC do not have a single player in the top 20.

Heads Up

Sydney FC are yet to conceded a single headed goal so far this season, while Glory have copped five.

But Richard Garcia’s side have scored eight headers to the Sky Blues’ two.

Bobo’s Bonanza

Bobo

Sydney FC striker Bobo has scored a remarkable ten goals in his eight appearances against Glory.

The Brazilian has also never been on the losing side in this fixture (7 wins, 1 draw).
