1.75Tip and bets
The visitors lost two matches at the start of the season, but clearly plan to take the first points as soon as possible. In face-to-face meetings with Melbourne Victory, the team from Brisbane performs quite successfully - not a single defeat since 2021. We believe that in this match, the underdog may well fight for tournament points or at least impose competition on the opponent.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (+1) on Brisbane Roar for 1.77
Bet on total
Both teams try to rely on attack in the first rounds and are unlikely to change their style in the upcoming match. Very little time has passed since the beginning of the season, so the players' starting fervor has certainly not dried up yet. We believe that there will be many goals scored in this game.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on corners
If the game is open, as we think, then in this match the opponents will make quite a few passes from the corner flag. We will make another bet on the over total for this indicator.
Our prediction is total over 11.5 corners with odds of 1.85
