Current form
Brisbane Roar failed to make the playoffs last season, finishing in ninth place in the league table. The team was nine points behind the top 6. In the preliminary round of the Australian Cup, the visitors lost to Perth Glory with a score of 2:4. The new A-League season also started poorly. The club first lost to the league newcomer, Auckland (0:2), and then lost to Sydney (2:3), Melbourne Victory (0:2) and Adelaide United (2:3). These results brought the team to the last place in the table, but so far Ruben Zadkovic team has played fewer matches than its competitors.

1.80Tip and bets
The hosts have suffered too many defeats in recent matches and now is the time to recoup. They are facing a team that has not scored a single point this season, so the "bulls" are simply obliged to win. The visitors have not yet found their game and are unlikely to avoid defeat on the road.
Our prediction is MacArthur victory at 1.80
Bet on total
The teams are doing well in attack, but the 3.5 goal mark still seems too high to us. The opponents need points, so the opponents simply have to pay attention to defense. Most likely, we will not see more than three goals here.
Our prediction is total under 3.5 goals for 1.70
Bet on corners
In this match, we expect MacArthur to be superior not only in terms of the score, but also in other various parameters, including the number of corners taken.
Our prediction is Macarthur will take more corners with odds of 1.90
