Perth Glory present an intriguing dichotomy. Their overall season form is rather pedestrian, marked by a 50% loss rate and a modest scoring record. However, their away form tells a vastly different story, with an outstanding 75% win rate from four games. In their last three away matches, they've been particularly potent, scoring 2.3 goals per game on average. Their most recent outing, a 3-1 away win, further underlines this strong road capability, despite a dip in possession and passing accuracy in that specific match.
