Brisbane Roar vs Macarthur Prediction

Brisbane Roar have lifted themselves to second-from-bottom on goal difference above Perth Glory in the A League. The Queenslanders most recently suffered a 2-0 loss at home to league leaders Auckland last weekend. They now face a Macarthur side that have been thrilling to watch throughout this campaign with their 5-4 victory over Adelaide United before the international break followed up by a 3-3 draw with the Newcastle Jets in a game in which they were 2-0 down and then 3-1 down fairly late on. Their 22 A League matches have consisted of 78 goals so far this season. Both teams scoring would appear a good bet for this one.
