Brisbane U21 vs Gold Coast Utd tips and predictions

Odds stand out for a home win

This could well be one of those encounters where Brisbane U21 just do enough to get the job done and they're certain to face some resistance from this Gold Coast Utd outfit.

You may not agree but Brisbane U21 might have reasons to be confident about adding to Gold Coast Utd's latest reverses. The visitors are on a poor streak away from home; they've lost all of their last 4 assingment on the road. This just might not be suitable preparation for this one.

When they're at home Brisbane U21 have produced some brilliant stuff. Their recent 16 home matches have seen them hitting the net an average of 2.9 times per game.

Gold Coast Utd have conceded three or more goals in 5 of their last 14 matches. Their legitimate scoring chances are conspicuous by their absence as well. Gold Coast Utd have only scored once in their last 4 away games.

You'll know who has the edge from the previous meetings. Brisbane U21 have won 5 of the last 6 fixtures between the two teams. With regard to previous meetings the head-to-head stats favour another home win.

It's possible this is a match that will simply depend on which side has the brighter start. The sportsbooks are predicting both sides to get in on the act as they can both be efficient in front of goal. But with the odds-against price on BTTS No, that seems the better option on this occasion.
