Perth Glory are searching for their first A-League win this season as they take on Melbourne City at the HBF Park in Perth on Sunday.

The hosts have not had a good start to the season, picking up a 6-1 loss to Macarthur in their opening match, followed by a 2-0 defeat to Wellington Phoenix. They did manage to pick up a point in the goalless draw against Central Coast Mariners last week.

Meanwhile, Melbourne City come into this match on the back of a 1-0 win over Western United. With two wins from three matches so far, they are fourth in the A League standings.
