[A-League Men] Although Brisbane won their previous match, they remain the clear outsider in this game.
Brisbane is the absolute worst team in the A-League this season. The "Orange" have played 13 matches and collected only 5 points. Their goal difference stands at -14, which is the second-worst record in the league. The gap from the playoff zone is already 17 points, so Brisbane can only think about how to push off from rock bottom. Hoping for anything more is unrealistic.
However, in the previous match, Brisbane finally managed to secure their long-awaited first victory of the season. In a thrilling match, the "Orange" defeated Sydney FC 4-3 away. However, Brisbane nearly squandered their lead, having been up 4-1. Before that, "Roar" lost to Melbourne City and Newcastle Jets by a score of 0-1 and suffered a 1-3 defeat against Central Coast Mariners. Before the win over Sydney FC, they were on a five-match losing streak.
Western Sydney, on the contrary, is fighting for a place in the A-League playoffs. In 14 matches, the Wanderers have collected 18 points and occupy ninth place. Their gap from the top 6 is currently 4 points, meaning the battle is still ahead for this team.
A big problem for Western Sydney this season has been home matches, as they have earned most of their points away from home. In their last two matches, Western Sydney suffered two home defeats—0-1 against Auckland and 1-3 against Central Coast Mariners. Before that, Western Sydney managed to defeat Perth Glory away (2-1).
