Player to watch: Yonathan Cohen
Valued at an unfair €500k, Yonathan Cohen is one of the best Melbourne City players right now. The winger found the net on four occasions so far during the 2024/25 A-League campaign. We consider our key Melbourne City vs Brisbane Roar predictions a sure thing, as Cohen is a firm starter under coach Aurelio Vidmar’s rule.

Second player to watch: Jay O’Shea
Jay O’Shea is a player who can do it all – score and create. With three goals and three assists since the start of the season, O’Shea proved he has a place among the starters for the visitors.
