A pair of struggling defenses between teams in the lower half of the Australian A-League standings. The Wellington Phoenix are getting outscored 27-21 in 16 matches, with 12 of their last 16 going OVER 2.5 goals. The Brisbane Roar have home field but are the second-worst team in the standings. The offense is decent (21 goals scored in 17 games) but the defense has surrendered 27. Brisbane comes off a 3-2 loss to Western United, with 10 of their last 11 games sailing OVER 2.5 goals. These teams have already met twice this year, splitting 2-1 and 3-0 games, and this will be another high-scoring affair. Take Brisbane Roar/Wellington Phoenix OVER the total.
