LWWWLD

In their previous game, Adelaide United drew 3-3 in the A-League tie with Western United.

In that match, Adelaide United had 56% possession and 22 shots at goal with 8 on target. For Adelaide United, the scorers were Hiroshi Ibusuki (45', 57') and Nestor Irankunda (62').

Adelaide United have attacked well of late, having scored 14 goals in their previous 6 matches. While their manager Carl Veart will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Adelaide United have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 5 of those same clashes. That sort of trend won’t necessarily be carried forward into this game, though.

Going into this contest, Adelaide United have not lost to Brisbane Roar in away games against them for the last 3 matches in the league.
