Having seen their opening game of the A-League season against Adelaide United postponed, Brisbane Roar will be raring to go when they host Perth Glory on Friday morning at Suncorp Stadium.
Watching on while the majority of the competition got their domestic campaigns underway, Brisbane will be itching to get going against a Perth side who suffered defeat in their opening game.
Losing 2-1 away at Macarthur FC, Glory hit the road again this week for a tough game in Queensland.
Brisbane Roar v Perth Glory Tips Summary
Best Bet - Brisbane Roar to win @ 2.10
Alternative Bet - Over 2.5 total goals @ 1.80
Bet Builder - Virgiliu Postolachi & Tom Lawrence anytime goalscorers @ 10.25
Brisbane Roar v Perth Glory Prediction
Best Bet: Brisbane Roar to win @ 2.10
Following a disappointing opening weekend defeat at Macarthur, things don’t get any easier for Perth when they head to Suncorp Stadium on Friday.
Brisbane has not been a happy hunting ground for Glory in recent years, with the Western Australia outfit winning just once in their last seven visits in the A-League.
The Roar will be fresh and raring to go for this opening game in front of their own fans and the hosts are good value to keep up their decent home record against Perth and bag the three points here.
Alternative Bet: Over 2.5 total goals @ 1.80
With three goals scored in their opening game at Macarthur, another match with plenty of goals can be expected on Friday in Queensland.
Both teams have found the back of the net in all of the last four meetings between these sides and, with Brisbane backed to come out on top, going for the over 2.5 total goals gets the nod.
Brisbane Roar v Perth Glory Bet Builder Tip
Virgiliu Postolachi anytime goalscorer
Tom Lawrence anytime goalscorer
Pays 10.25
Switching focus to the anytime goalscorer market for this two-fold Bet Builder, both Virgiliu Postolachi and Tom Lawrence are fancied to find the back of the net at Suncorp Stadium.
There is plenty of hope that Moldova international Postolachi can hit the ground running with his new club.
The 26-year-old forward lacked game time at former club FC Universitatea Cluj, but has the attributes to do well Down Under and is fancied to make a scoring start against Perth.
Meanwhile, former Derby County and Rangers midfielder Lawrence opened his goalscoring account for the season last weekend at Macarthur and is tipped to bag another against this Brisbane defence.
