Brisbane Roar and Central Coast Mariners do battle on Saturday afternoon at Suncorp Stadium. Join The Roar for live scores and a blog of the match starting from 5pm (AEDT).
Brisbane go into the match aiming to bounce back from last weekend’s disappointing 2-1 loss at Wellington Phoenix.
Robbie Fowler’s men failed to build on their stirring comeback win against Melbourne City, which remains their only victory in six rounds this season.
They will look to the hat-trick hero that day Roy O’Donovan to score the goals to give them a much-needed home win.
Finding the net has been an issue for the Roar this term and they are the only A-League side this season who have failed to score in the opening 45 minutes.
They will looking to break that unwanted record against a Central Coast side they hold an impressive record against – the last time the Mariners got the better of the Roar in the A-League was back in April 2014.
Fowler has a fully fit squad to choose from, with only long term injury victim Jack Hingert omitted from his matchday squad.
The Mariners go into the clash buoyed by their 1-0 win against Western United which lifted them to sixth on the ladder.
Giancarlo Gallifuoco’s deflected strike gave them the points and also saw them claim a first clean sheet in almost two years.
The two sides met earlier in the year in the FFA Cup, with the Central Coast prevailing on penalties after a 2-2 draw.
A goalscorer that day was Sam Silvera, and Coast fans will hope the youngster will continue his impressive start this season, with his pace and trickery bound to cause problems for the Roar backline.
Prediction
Brisbane have been slow starters so far this term and the Central Coast will look to catch them cold.
I’m backing the front pairing of Silvera and DeSilva to have too much for the Roar and take the three points back to Gosford.
