The A-League leading Central Coast Mariners face arguably the toughest test of their Premiership credentials yet when they travel west to face in-form Perth Glory on Tuesday.
Richard Garcia’s side have strung together three straight wins since suffering back-to-back late collapses while losing thrillers against Melbourne Victory and Western United in January.
Diego Castro, Bruno Fornaroli and company have showcased their attacking prowess in taking maximum-points hauls against Melbourne City, Adelaide United and Brisbane Roar, 3-1 on Friday.
The sixth-placed club remain the competition’s top scorers with 18 goals, and the only team that has scored more than Alen Stajcic’s early-season front-runners, who are four-points clear at the top of the ladder despite not playing for 11 days since their 3-2 loss against Adelaide.
