The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the Npl Queensland this season. Logan Lightning have only managed 2 wins, 3 draws and 7 losses from their games here at Cornubia Park. With seven home Npl Queensland games in a row without a win, the Lightning fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Gold Coast United game long ago, can be stopped today.

A strong away win for Lightning against Moreton Bay United the last match, as L. Goulding, J. Coutts, J. Brown and M. Green were on target. A goal frenzy last time out for Lightning, with a total of 7 goals in the match against Moreton Bay United. Fun stuff to watch!

A 1-1 draw at Eastern Suburbs Brisbane's stadium before that.
