Melbourne Victory heads west for its FFA Cup Round of 32 clash with Perth Glory at Dorrien Gardens on Tuesday.

Victory’s first competitive game of the new season will kick off at 8.30pm AEST.

Summary

Kevin Muscat’s men travel to Perth on the back of two friendly wins against Victorian NPL sides Oakleigh Cannons and Port Melbourne.

New signings Corey Brown, Storm Roux, Georg Niedermeier and Nick Ansell will all be in the mix for selection.

A new-look Perth Glory will no doubt be a tough challenge under new boss Tony Popovic.

Popovic has brought in a number of new players, including Matthew Spiranovic, Tomislav Mrcela and Spanish midfielder Juande.

Victory, the 2015 FFA Cup winners, will be hoping for a repeat of its Round of 32 result from last year – a 5-1 win away against Brisbane Roar.
