Brisbane Roar FC
- Brisbane Roar FC and Perth Glory meet on Saturday afternoon in an A-League 2025/2026 game that sees 9th placed Brisbane (22pts from 19 games) host 10th placed Perth Glory (20pts from 18 games).
- The home side, who lost 1-0 away to Sydney FC last time out, have endured a run of 0-1-4 across their last five games.
- Their 1-1 draw away to Melbourne Victory in mid-October is their only point in this run, which comes after coach Michael Valkanis publicly pledged to play a more front-foot, high-tempo style following his appointment in May 2025.
- One of the few positives to come out of this run has been Nicholas D’Agostino, who has scored two of Brisbane’s last five goals.

- Tom Lawrence leads their goal charts with five in A-League 2025/2026 (13 appearances).
- Jaiden Kucharski has netted two of their goals in the last five.
- The mid-season transition saw the club take a pragmatic, defensive approach, with the team looking to sit back in a compact shape and punish opponents on the break with quick attacks through the wide areas and counter-attacking.
- Griffiths’ side averages 1.38 goals per game away from home.
