Melbourne City vs Brisbane: Top Free Betting Tips

On the back of an away defeat against Macarthur, Brisbane Roar takes on the league leaders Melbourne City in the next fixture on Sunday, 12 March. City Boys have also lost three points in the previous attempt at the home of Adelaide United.

Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals

Despite struggling with consistency in recent games, Melbourne City has added a total of 17 goals in the previous five outings. The team is even better at home by hitting the target 12 times in just the previous three home duels. In opposition, Brisbane Roar has also rattled the net five times in the last three outings. In the H2Hs, three of the last four meetings at City’s home have been high-scoring outcomes. Following the current flow of goals, we expect this game to go over 2.5 goals at the end.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: Yes

Three of the last four meetings of these teams at the home of Melbourne City featured BTTS patterns and we hope for the same in this game. Melbourne City has an admirable scoring string by hitting the target in all of the last six outings. However, the team has also been unable to keep a clean sheet in that duration. In opposition, the Roar have also been on the scoring side in four of the last five away outings, regardless of following a winless streak.

Correct Score Prediction: 3-1 to Melbourne City

Melbourne City has rattled the net multiple times in all of the last four home games. Defensively, City Boys have allowed more than once in only two of the last five hosting duels. However, the Lions have conceded 12 goals in the last five games away from home. Brisbane Roar has managed an average of only one goal per game in that course offensively. Given these numbers, we predict a comfortable lead of 3-1 for the hosts in this game.
