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.

City Boys faced the consecutive second away defeat in the last game with a 4-2 scoreline against Adelaide United.
