Today's Betting Tips for Brisbane Roar vs Western Sydney Wanderers
Brisbane Roar will be aiming to close the gap on Western Sydney Wanderers to just 1pt with a win at home on Thursday. The visitors, WSW, could move top of the table if they find a way to secure all 3pts from this game but they don't have the best of recent records against their hosts.
Contents
Brisbane Roar to Win
We're backing Brisbane Roar to win as the hosts have picked up three wins from their last five encounters against WSW, including a 3-1 win when the pair met in the Australian Cup back in May. The hosts are unbeaten in their last five matches, securing two wins from their last three games, while WSW have only won one of their last five matches in all competitions.
Both Teams to Score
There is a good chance that we will be treated to goals at both ends of the pitch in this game as that is how five of the last seven meetings between these two clubs have finished. Both teams have also scored in three of the host's last five fixtures, as well as in two of WSW's last three outings.

Form, Team News and Predicted Lineups
Brisbane Roar
Brisbane might sit 4pts behind their guests but form is in the home side's favour as the Roar haven't lost any of their last five fixtures and are now on the same goal difference as WSW. Last time out, Brisbane secured a 1-0 win away at Newcastle Jets thanks to a late strike from Mileusnic which took the Roar onto 10pts for the season.
Predicted Lineup – Holmes (GK), Neville, Aldred, Hingert, Trewin, Courtney-Perkins, O'Shea, Danzaki, Austin, Mileusnic & Armiento
Western Sydney Wanderers
WSW have played to a good standard so far this season but their recent results suggest that they may start to drop down the table soon. The visitors have only managed to win one of their last five matches in all competitions and they go up against a Brisbane side that they have only beaten once in their last seven attempts.
Predicted Lineup – Thomas (GK), Marcelo, Traoré, Mrčela, Cléùr, Bozanic, Amalfitano, Nieuwenhof, N'Gbakoto, Krpić & Borello
Starting Lineups
Brisbane Roar
Western Sydney Wanderers
Player to Watch: Charlie Austin
The former QPR, West Brom and Southampton striker top scores in the league for Brisbane Roar this season with 2-goals.
At the age of 33, Austin's playing days are coming to a close but he still has the talent to make himself one of the main strikers in the A-League this season, provided he is given the right kind of service.
Although he never played for his country, Auston has scored 160 league goals in his long career and have played at the highest level in English football for all of the above-mentioned clubs, most memorably netting 18-goals in the Premier League for QPR during the 2014/15 campaign.
