Brisbane Roar, Recent FormBrisbane Roar manager Luciano Trani will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 8-1 away defeat by Melbourne City. Their share of possession in that meeting was 42%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target, in contrast to Melbourne City, who had 24 shots on goal with 14 on target.
Having lost 16 goals in their past 6 matches, Trani will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 8 goals they scored. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games; however, they've scored in 9 of their 10 games this season.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories.
Jay O'Shea will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Brisbane Roar.
Sydney FC, Recent FormWith a 3-1 home win last time out against Wellington Phoenix, Sydney FC will be looking forward to this one, and there will undoubtedly be a mood of confidence among their squad. In that game they had 62% possession and managed 34 attempts on goal, with 12 on target, compared to Wellington Phoenix who had 13 attempts and 4 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 11 and seen valuable points lost. They have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 10 games, and so far this season they've failed to score in 6 of their 10 games.
This has been a difficult period for the team in terms of away form, with 3 defeats and just 2 victories in their last 6 matches away from home.
On an individual basis, Joe Lolley will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 5 goals in Sydney FC's 10 league games this season.
Sydney FC will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Brisbane Roar, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 3-0 defeat.
Playing away from home, Sydney FC have scored in 2 of their last 3 league games against Brisbane.
Nikola Mileusnic has scored in each of Brisbane's last 2 league games against Sydney FC.
With no real injury worries, Brisbane manager Luciano Trani will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Sydney FC manager Ufuk Talay has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
