Dean Heffernan’s side succumbed to their first lost of the campaign in a 4-0 defeat to Brisbane which puts a sizeable dent in the Red & Black’s Premiership assault.
All eyes will be on how the Wanderers respond against a Perth outfit still searching for their first victory of the season.
The Red & Black will be without talented shot-stopper Abby Smith.
Scans have confirmed that Smith suffered an injury to her knee during the Wanderers Round 9 clash against Brisbane Roar at Marconi Stadium and will be out for the next four weeks.
Bobby Despotovski’s side earned just their second draw of the season after scoring a late equaliser against Adelaide United in their last hit-out, and the Glory will be hungry to get on a roll of positive results when they travel to Bankwest Stadium.
The Wanderers sit in third place after last week’s crushing loss but hold a game in hand over Sydney FC and Melbourne City above them, making a win over the Glory of upmost importance to the their Premiership chances.
