Show Preview
Fresh off securing the Premiers Plate, Melbourne City will be aiming to continue their sterling season when they travel to Moreton to tackle the Brisbane Roar. Don’t miss a moment of Tuesday night A-League with live scores on The Roar from 7:05pm (AEDT).
Patrick Kisnorbo’s men will head into the A-League finals on top for the first time in their history. Impressively, they’ve achieved it with three rounds still to play, a reflection of how much they have dominated this season.
City have, however, shown vulnerability of late, conceding a late goal in a 2-2 draw with Wellington before escaping with a 1-0 win over the Central Coast Mariners on Saturday. An added-time decision to award a penalty to the Mariners was overturned by the VAR to leave the home fans rejoicing, but it’s a bad time to be coming off the boil.
With four matches to go, the Roar’s season is at a critical juncture. They sit sixth with two points and a game in hand of the seventh-placed Perth Glory, and a strong finish to the year could see them easily challenge for third or fourth. However, a defeat here would leave them looking nervously over their shoulders at the chasing pack, particularly given they play the Glory and the ninth-placed Wanderers in their run home.
