The 2025-26 A-League’s worst scoring unit, Macarthur FC, will face a bigger challenge on matchday nine as they come up against the best defensive unit, Brisbane Roar. This match on matchday nine in Sydney between the tenth-placed Bulls and the third-placed Lions comes with our prediction of less than 2.5 goals.
With eight points from seven matches (W2, D2, L3), Macarthur are in the bottom four, although having played a game less. Brisbane’s 15 points (W4, D3, L1) put them three points behind leaders Sydney FC ahead of this round.
Macarthur drew 0-0 at home against Melbourne Victory two weeks before, which extended their indifferent start to the season. They have just one win from their last five league games (D2, L2), underlining their poor scoring record, which is the lowest in the league (four).
The hosts are winless in their last three home league games (D2, L1), failing to score in their latest two fixtures.
Brisbane also had a 0-0 draw in their last fixture, away at Western Sydney Warriors last week. It kept their unbeaten streak alive, with the Lions now winning and drawing three games each in their last six league fixtures.
Capping this streak is their impressive defensive record, as they have kept five clean sheets, including two in a row on the road.
