Brisbane Roar v Melbourne City: match preview

A mouth-watering battle between fourth and second kicks off 2020 in style as Brisbane Roar host Melbourne City on Thursday at 7.30pm AEDT.

Brisbane have bounced back from consecutive defeats to start the season by going on a four-match unbeaten streak, which was extended in a 2-1 win over Newcastle Jets last time out. 

That victory saw the Queensland side enter the Westfield W-League top four but retaining their Finals Series standing for now will depend on how they fare against Premiership-chasing Melbourne City.

The three-time Champions have won five matches in a row - all by a one-goal margin - and you would expect this contest to be a similarly tight affair as City look to retake lead of the competition.
