Another interesting game in the A-League. Brisbane Roar is in the 1st position after playing five matches. They welcome Macarthur who are placed 5th after six games.
- Brisbane Roar has the the best goal difference (+7) in A-League
- Macarthur have won all their away games so far.
It's no vacation for neither Brisbane nor Macarthur 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.
Brisbane Roar form and stats
Brisbane Roar, who have the the best goal difference (+7) in A-League, have secured 6 points from their first three home games in the A-League. A decent catch, still with room for improvement. With a nice streak brewing from their home games, Brisbane are also looking for their fifth consecutive victory regardless of location. Two home wins in a row for Brisbane bring valid hopes of a third.
Brisbane's last game was hosting Melbourne Victory (placed 12th) and winning 5-2. Ahead of that match, Brisbane won a home game hosting Adelaide United (3-1).
A goal frenzy last time out for Brisbane Roar, with a total of 7 goals in the match against Melbourne Victory. Fun stuff to watch!
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 Brisbane have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found five games) they have won three times, drawn two and lost zero.
Brisbane Roar are an "over 2,5 goals" team alone here at OldMac Stadium in their league games, having scored an impressive 8 goals in 3 matches. Brisbane's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 4 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Macarthur form and stats
Macarthur are on a winning streak away after three games, as mentioned below. A maximum 6 points in the bag from 2 travels in the A-League.
There were no winners in Macarthur's previous match, a A-League home game that ended 2-2 vs Western Sydney Wanderers (placed 4th). A 0-3 loss hosting Sydney before that.
After this away game Macarthur return home for a A-League game against Adelaide United. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Macarthur have the goal stats of 3-1 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
