Perth Glory’s most recent meeting with Brisbane Roar ended 2-1 in Perth’s favour in April, and Perth will hope that result can be the first step in a climb out of the relegation zone. Sitting 10th of 12 in the A-League table, the Glory need points early in the campaign.
Glory’s race to climb clear
Perth are in the lower reaches of the table, and Brisbane sit just one place above them. This fixture gives both sides a chance to move away from the bottom, and for Perth it is a test of whether they can turn their fight for survival into a run of results.
A shaky start for Perth
Perth’s only game so far this season ended in defeat. They managed one goal and conceded two, both coming between the 76th and 90th minutes, a late collapse they will want to fix quickly.
Two wins apiece in a tight rivalry
In their last five meetings, Brisbane and Perth have won twice each, with one draw. The goals have been shared almost evenly: Brisbane have scored seven, Perth six, and every one of those five games has produced at least one goal.
Absences on both sides
Brisbane will be without T. Francois, who is inactive, and V. Postolachi, who is injured. Perth are missing T. Ostler, who is out with a broken jawbone.
Our prediction
PreviaXI’s model favours Brisbane Roar, and the football behind that is straightforward. The home side are expected to create the better chances, and playing at Suncorp Stadium adds to their strength. Perth have managed only one goal so far, and a side that needs a result cannot afford to leave gaps against a team that creates more. Expect a tight, cagey contest where a single moment could decide it, with Brisbane edging it narrowly.
Brisbane Roar 1-0 Perth Glory
