Brisbane Roar team news and form: The Lions are toothless
Perth Glory kicked the Lions out of the Australian Cup chase. Moreover, Brisbane Roar didn’t record impressive results in the pre-season friendlies either. After all, Waddingham and his colleagues even managed to lose 2-1 to lacklustre Odisha.

Player to watch: Alex Paulsen
Premier League’s Bournemouth snapped Paulsen on a record-breaking deal but opted to give him another season in the A-League before he joins the Cherries next year. We believe Paulsen deserves to be named the player to watch in our professional Auckland vs Brisbane Roar prediction, as he is by far the most noticeable name here.

Second player to watch: Guillermo May
May is the most expensive player Auckland’s manager has at his disposal. Surely, the striker will lead Auckland’s attack against Brisbane Roar.
