Macarthur vs Brisbane Roar Prediction and Betting Tips

Macarthur and Brisbane Roar get round nine of Australian A-League underway when they square off at the Campbelltown Stadium on Friday. Mile Sterjovski’s men are unbeaten in their last four home games against Brisbane since April 2022 and will be out to extend this impressive three-year streak.

Macarthur secured a 2-1 victory over Chinese outfit Beijing Guoan in the Group E finale of the AFC Champions League to finish five points clear at the top of the group standings last Thursday.

While Sterjovski’s side are firing on all cylinders on the continental scene, they have struggled for consistency back home, failing to win four of their last five A-League matches (2D 2L).

Macarthur have picked up eight points from their seven league matches so far to sit 10th in the standings, level on points with the bottom-two sides Melbourne Victory and Wellington Phoenix.

On the other hand, Brisbane Roar failed to secure a third league win on the trot last time out when they played out a goalless draw with Western Sydney Wanderers.

With that result, Michael Valkanis’ men have now gone six consecutive matches without defeat, claiming three wins and three draws since a 2-1 loss against Wellington Phoenix on October 26.

Brisbane Roar have picked up 15 points from their eight A-League matches so far to sit third in the standings, three points off league leaders Sydney FC.
