Western Australia's border restrictions have come back to bite the winless Perth Glory, who will be forced to travel across the country to play their home game against United.

The match was originally scheduled for Thursday night in Perth, but because Canberra played in Melbourne on February 28 they're not permitted to enter WA.

Now the game will go ahead at Viking Park on Friday at 6.05pm.

United are just two points outside the top four with three games remaining.
