On Saturday, January 12, Brisbane Roar will play Melbourne City at Kayo Stadium in the A-League. The hosts finished 11th out of 12 teams in the Finals series last year but did not compete. Since the 2013–14 season, Brisbane has not been victorious in the competition. They are, however, targeting the playoffs this season after a successful start.

After 12 games, the Roar are seventh in the standings with 15 points. They would be eligible to play in the Finals series and the Australia Cup round of 32 if they finish in sixth place. However, they have lost almost all of their last ten matches against Melbourne, a team they have always struggled against.

After 11 games, Melbourne holds the lead in the standings with 26 points, four points ahead of the Central Coast Mariners. Since the 2020–21 season, they have won the A-League Men’s Premiership twice, and they hope to win it again this year for a third time. At AAMI Park, expectations are sky-high; Melbourne cannot afford a misstep in Brisbane.

With 14 games remaining, the City Boys’ trip to Brisbane would test their title credentials once more. They have lost once in their last five meetings at Brisbane and once in their last five away games. They outscored Brisbane 4-1 in both of their homes and away victories this season. Can they repeat it?
