Brisbane Roar vs Auckland Prediction

Form check

Brisbane Roar's recent sample covers a wide mix of fixtures, including friendlies and an Australia Cup run alongside their A-League games. Across that set they've won five, drawn five and lost ten, with 33 goals scored and 34 conceded, so there's no strong pattern of dominance either way.

Brisbane Roar: 20 completed matches; Auckland: 20 completed matches.

Auckland's sample is similarly varied, taking in A-League matches, friendlies and a game in the FIFA Intercontinental Cup. They've won six, drawn eight and lost six in that span, scoring 30 and conceding 24, which is a touch tidier than Brisbane Roar's numbers but not by a huge margin.

Because both samples blend different competitions, this is best read as a general form snapshot rather than a clean league table story.

Comparative Team Statistics: Brisbane Roar vs Auckland

Recent meetings

The last five recorded meetings between these two lean towards Auckland. They won away at Brisbane Roar in January 2026, drew there in a friendly in August 2025, and won away again back in March 2025, plus took a home win over Brisbane Roar in October 2024. There's also a 1-1 draw from a trip to Auckland in November 2025.

That works out to three wins and two draws for Auckland across the sample, with no losses recorded against Brisbane Roar in that run.

That gives Auckland a recent edge in this fixture, though results from over a year ago don't tell us much about either side's current shape.

Team news

Auckland's goal threat is fairly spread out. Cosgrove leads the way with 12, Randall and Brook are both on nine, and May has added six more. Randall also tops the assist chart with eight, with de Vries close behind on seven.

O. Sail

On the injury front, Auckland have three players listed as missing for this fixture: Francois, Gallegos and Sail. Brisbane Roar's only entry is Bility, who's listed as a doubt through injury rather than a confirmed absence.

If those Auckland absences hold up, that's a decent chunk of squad depth to replace, even with the scoring spread across several players.

How this could play out

This fixture is still a month away from where this form picture was taken, so some of these situations could shift before kickoff. Brisbane Roar's overall numbers look shakier, but their sample includes several one-off friendlies and cup games that don't necessarily reflect league sharpness.

Auckland go in with the better recent head-to-head record and a more even points return in their own sample, but they're carrying a few possible absences. Put together, that mix makes this one tricky to call with much confidence.
