Brisbane Roar vs Western Sydney Wanderers Predictions

  • Brisbane Roar have picked up seven points from a possible 15, remaining in 6th position.
  • Western Sydney Wanderers are now unbeaten in four games, moving two points behind this weekend’s opponents.
  • Brisbane have scored just 20 goals in 19 games but conceded just 23 and have the lowest A-League goals per game record at 2.3.
  • Western Sydney Wanderers have scored 24 times, conceding 25 and seeing their games average 2.7 goals per game.

Maintaining their position is the hopeful outcome

Brisbane Roar have lost a little bit of ground in their pursuit of finals series football this season with just one point in their last two games but their form prior to this had been so good that they still hold a two point lead over the teams chasing them. A win here would see that lead increase back to five points but they face a stern test with Western Sydney arriving at Suncorp Stadium.

Brisbane Roar have scored just 20 times this season, an average of 1.05 goals per game, scoring just one more than bottom club Central Coast Mariners. Their defensive record has been superb though, with The Roar conceding just 23 times, the third lowest total in the league. Just six of Brisbane’s 19 games have seen over 2.5 goals.

New lease of life for Western Sydney

Western Sydney Wanderers seem to have put their poor run of form firmly behind them, picking up three wins out of their last four and moving to within two points of this weekend’s opponents, Brisbane Roar. Last week’s impressive win over big rivals, Sydney FC, has been the highlight of the the side’s recent form and they look full of confidence as the race for finals series football hots up.

Western Sydney have scored 24 times this season, at a rate of 1.33 goals per game. The side have conceded at a very similar rate of 1.38 goals per game with their matches averaging 2.7 goals per game. Their recent form has seen this number rise with their average number of goals per game sitting at 3 over the last five weeks. Much of this is due to the form of Mitch Duke, who now has five goals in his last four games.

Finals series qualification the goal for both sides

These two teams are in the small group hoping to make it to the finals series this season and, as the end of the year comes into view, things are beginning to get really tight in the middle of the table. This match should follow that trend with two teams who have excelled in defence but not really in attack this year. With both sides hoping to keep things tight, we’re backing this game to see under 2.5 goals.

This game should be settled by a single goal with both teams hoping to avoid a loss. There’s plenty of reasons for both teams having the confidence to find the win here but we think the recent fortunes of Western Sydney will give them the edge in this vital game and we’re predicting the away side comes away with a 1-0 win.
