The season is still fairly new and the A-League table has to be read with caution. So far Adelaide United find themselves in 5th position and Brisbane Roar are placed 9th.
It's no vacation for neither Adelaide United nor Brisbane Roar as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
It's quite the trip for Brisbane Roar when visiting Adelaide United as the cities are 2000 kilometers apart.
Adelaide United form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Adelaide United's two home games in the A-League so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Coopers Stadium.
Adelaide United's previous game was a A-League match also played at home, ending 1-0 versus Brisbane Roar (placed 9th). The home side are looking to build on that result. A strong away win before that one, visiting Newcastle Jets and winning 2-1.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Adelaide United have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won 5 times, drawn 2 and lost 0.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Adelaide United at home in the league. 3 on target and 3 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Brisbane Roar form and stats
Still no away game victory in the A-League for Brisbane Roar, who have the fewest scored goals (1) in A-League, with 2 draws and 1 loss from their first 3 attempts.
Brisbane Roar play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-1 to Adelaide United (placed 5th). Before that, Brisbane Roar travelled to Western Sydney Wanderers and returned home with a draw after the game finished 0-0.
Brisbane Roar are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 2 draws and 6 defeats. From a total of ten matches.
Goals are few and far between in Brisbane Roar's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. It's not easy to score on Brisbane Roar as they have only conceded 2 goals from these away games.
Head 2 Head
Adelaide United - Brisbane Roar 1-0 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Adelaide United won 6 games, 1 match ended with a draw and Brisbane Roar has 3 wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: 7 / 3Top Goalscorers
