When: Friday, 8 Feb, 7:50PM
Where: Suncorp Stadium
Bet: Bet On This Match HERE
Preview:
Brisbane went from one of the biggest highs to the biggest lows in the space of a week.
After pulling off a miracle comeback against Western Sydney, the Roar blew a three goal lead in Adelaide and had two players sent off in the process.
The bigger loss of the two will be star goalkeeper Jamie Young who is going to be replaced by either Brendan White or Y-League keeper Macklin Freke, either way they will be starting their first A-League match.
Sydney has only lost one of its last six at Suncorp Stadium and shouldn’t lose this here.
