This could be an interesting match as Brisbane Roar have their presumed home advantage while Sydney are ahead 13 points in the A-League table.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
These teams have little in common geographically as Sydney have to travel 900 kilometers to reach their opponents. The trip home will be especially long if the match ends in defeat.
