X25%(3.78)
220%(4.72)

Melbourne Victory FC displays significantly better home form with a 57% win rate at home and a positive goal difference of +7 in matches in front of their own fans. The hosts score an average of 2 goals per match in home games with an xG of 1.96, indicating a consistently effective offense. Brisbane Roar is in terrible form, having lost 4 of their last 5 matches and conceding as many as 12 goals during this period, while their away form is poor with only a 33% win rate and a negative goal difference of -3. The xG statistics also favor the hosts (1.96 vs 1.34), and Brisbane has defensive issues in away matches, conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game.
