They are winless in their last four home games in the A-League, suffering two losses. They have suffered five consecutive losses in their home meetings against Adelaide, conceding 14 goals.
The Reds have suffered four consecutive losses in the A-League and might struggle here. They have just one win in away games this season, suffering six consecutive losses, which is cause for concern.
Nonetheless, they have a solid recent record against the hosts, suffering just one in eight games. They have won their last five away meetings against the hosts, scoring 14 goals while conceding just five times, and will look to build on that form.
