Brisbane Roar vs Melbourne City Match Preview

Brisbane Roar will host Melbourne City for the Australian A-League at Moreton Daily Stadium in Brisbane. 

Brisbane Roar are just one place above the bottom having collected 17 points from 15 games played. They have played four games less than their opponents Melbourne City. 

Out of the last four games played by Brisbane, three of them ended in over 2.5 goals. 

Melbourne City are at the top of the table, one point ahead of Western United but they have played 2 more games than Western United. Out of the 19 games played by Melbourne City this season in the league, 15 of them had over 2.5 goals and only four had under 2.5 goals. Four out of the last five games played by Melbourne ended in over 2.5 goals.

Melbourne City forward J McLaren has been unstoppable this season as he is the top scorer in the league having bagged 12 goals. He is fit to play here and he might score at least once.

All the last three head-to-head meetings between the sides ended in over 2.5 goals. I expect one more open game where both sides will look to attack. Melbourne have a better attack though.

Odds for over 2.5 goals have very good value here in my opinion and I am going with this pick.
