Sydney FC and Brisbane Roar go head-to-head in round 15 of the Australian A-League on Saturday morning. Ruben Zadkovich’s men have failed to win their last eight visits to the Allianz Stadium and will head into the weekend looking to end this poor run.
Sydney FC were denied a third win on the bounce last Wednesday when they played out a goalless draw with Wellington Phoenix at the Wellington Regional Stadium.
With that result, Ufuk Talay’s men have gone unbeaten in six consecutive games, claiming three wins and three draws since losing back-to-back games against Central Coast Mariners and Western United back in December.
Sydney FC have picked up six wins and three draws from their 13 league games to collect 21 points and sit fifth in the standings, level on points with sixth-placed Macarthur.

With just two points from a possible 36, Brisbane Roar are currently rooted to the bottom of the A-League standings, six points off 12th-placed Perth Glory.
