Western Sydney Wanderers will be looking to climb to the top of the Australian A-League when they travel to the Kayo Stadium to face Brisbane Roar on Friday.
While the hosts have picked up six points from five home games so far this season, the visitors have accumulated seven points from their four matches on the road.
We say: Brisbane Roar 1-1 Western Sydney Wanderers
A closely-fought contest is set to take place on Friday between two sides who have not been involved in many high-scoring matches so far this season.
Although Western Sydney Wanderers currently sit five places higher than Brisbane, we can see the Roar securing at least a point on home soil to extend their unbeaten run.

Perth Glory will be looking to climb off the foot of the Australian A-League table when they welcome Wellington Phoenix to Macedonia Park on Friday.
While the hosts have lost six of their last eight matches across all competitions, the visitors have only suffered defeat once in their last five games and they came away with maximum points against Adelaide United last time out.
We say: Perth Glory 1-2 Wellington Phoenix
Wellington Phoenix head into Friday's contest in higher spirits than Perth Glory after their victory last time out, and the visitors will be regarded as slight favourites here.
The hosts will be desperate to claim maximum points as they seek to climb off the bottom of the table, but we believe the Yellow Army will outscore their opponents to prevail at Macedonia Park.
