Someone should refrain from passing that on to Western United who have taken to Launceston with the finesse of Lachlan Wales against Perth Glory's defence.

Perhaps it's because you can experience four seasons in one day in both places, although one would hazard a guess United's winning record at UTAS Stadium does help sweeten the trip down.

United delivered a masterclass in their second game against Glory at UTAS Stadium this season, with a 6-0 drubbing. While Macarthur's goals against record is superior to Perth's, the Victorian side would be eager not to give up their Launceston mantle despite expecting a sterner test..

United are yet to lose at the UTAS Stadium, after a win and a draw during last season was added to with two wins from two attempts so far this season.

"The boys love coming here ... it does feel like a home to us and the pitch is amazing, the conditions are great and the boys, they love it and they're confident," manager John Aloisi said.

The greatest difference for United between their last visit to their UTAS Stadium fortress was likely the crowd.

Perth Glory's games in February were subject to some mirth on social media with only their games against Brisbane Roar and United cracking 1000 in crowd figures, albeit the Macarthur game was scheduled on Launceston Cup day.

The atmosphere around UTAS Stadium on Saturday was a vastly different affair than the February ordeal. The official figure was 2231 as the venue was filled with chanting, drums, and fans that seemed to be genuinely invested in the result.

While potentially helped by the Launceston City and Hobart United curtain-raiser, the improved crowd impressed Aloisi.

"It was great and we're glad that we could put on that performance for the people that enjoy and love their football here in Tasmania and in Launceston," he said.

"We could hear them, they made noise and they also did that earlier in the season when we played Perth. It was our away game but they helped us.

"They created an atmosphere, it was good to see them turn up and let's hope on Tuesday we have a similar crowd that can help get us the result we're looking for."

Macarthur shape as a difficult opponent for a Western United side which remains in contention for the premiers plate.

The Bulls will enter the battle of the A-League's two newest sides with two wins in their last three, including a win over Aloisi's old side Brisbane Roar in their most recent match.

The Bulls' trip to Launceston is their final away fixture of the season before three home games.
