Roar Guru
The match of the round takes place at Suncorp Stadium, when Brisbane Roar take on Premiers Western Sydney Wanderers.
After the Wanderers’ unbeaten start to the season, and Brisbane’s solid start to the season, this fixture is a juicy one.
Can Brisbane be the team to finally end the Wanderers’ unbeaten streak?
Head-to-head these sides have played four times, with the Wanderers outstandingly taking out all four matches.
Even at home, Brisbane have a fight on their hands. While the Wanderers are red-hot at the moment, the return of Besart Berisha and the on-form Thomas Broich could be the game breakers to finally end Brisbane’s hoodoo against the Wanderers.
For the Roar, Ivan franjic and Matt McKay return to the side from international duty, Besart Berisha makes his return from injury, while Shane Stefanutto and Liam Miller miss out through injury.
For the Wanderers, Tony Popovic has promoted Michael Beauchamp and Jason Trifiro to the match-day squad, while Tomi Juric and Youssef Hersi miss out through injury.
Prediction
Going for a 1-2 win for the boys from Wanderland.
WSW may be weakened without Juric, but I just can’t see this side losing, they are on a hot streak and are oozing with confidence.
