Wellington Phoenix vs Brisbane Roar prediction

Wellington Phoenix have plenty of reason for optimism moving forward after coming back from two goals down against Perth Glory on the road to salvage a 2-2 draw. To recover from such a deficit away from home says a lot about the Wellington squad’s character, belief and never say die spirit. This can only bode well for them moving forward as they return home.

Brisbane Roar know they can take advantage of the defensive fragilities displayed by the Phoenix last time out but on the flip side, Wellington are a strong attacking team and at home will look to pile pressure onto Michael Valkanis’ men. With that in mind, we could be in for an all-action game and it’s worth backing over 2.5 goals scored.

Wellington Phoenix vs Brisbane Roar tip: Over 2.5 goals
