Brisbane Roar vs Sydney FC Head To Head
These two teams played out a pair of low-scoring games last season, with Sydney prevailing 1-0 at home before a 0-0 stalemate at Suncorp.
Brisbane Roar Form
It was another frustrating A-League campaign for Brisbane. After showing promise early in the season, their form fell away dramatically, with the club failing to win any of its final 12 matches to finish 11th on the ladder, 12 points outside the finals.
Michael Valkanis remains at the helm as Brisbane looks to make a fresh start in the Australia Cup. The Roar enjoyed a positive build-up, recording convincing pre-season victories over Caboolture (3-0) and Ipswich (5-0).
Brisbane then continued that momentum into the Round of 32 last week, registering a dominant 3-0 victory over Sydney Olympic, with Justin Nidic, Sabit Njor and Jacob Nasso scoring between the 63rd and 77th minute.
It's the first time Brisbane have advanced into the R16 since they finished runners-up to Sydney FC in 2023.
Sydney FC Form
Sydney made a slow start to the A-League season but found their best football at the perfect time, eliminating Melbourne Victory and minor premiers Newcastle Jets to book a place in the Grand Final.
The Sky Blues ultimately fell just short of silverware, suffering a 1-0 defeat to Auckland across the ditch Auckland also ended Sydney's Australia Cup campaign earlier in the season, knocking them out at the quarter-final stage.
Patrick Kisnorbo took charge late in the regular season and quickly tightened the side defensively, with Sydney conceding just five goals across their final eight matches under his guidance.
Sydney returned to action with a classy 5-1 demolition of Bayswater in the R32. Teenage rising star Akol Akon provided three assists as Thiago Quintal bagged himself a brilliant hat-trick, while Mathias Macallister and Zachary De Jesus were also on target.
It was also a great experience for Sydney last week as they shared the pitch with Tottenham in a friendly, holding the EPL heavyweights to a 1-1 draw after 90 minutes, with new Japanese signing Takahiro Sekine coming off the bench to score.
