Sydney FC Gears Up for Brisbane Roar Clash Amidst Strong Momentum
As Sydney FC prepares to face Brisbane Roar in the A-League, all eyes are on Ufuk Talay's side, which is riding an impressive six-match unbeaten streak. The match, set to take place at Allianz Stadium, comes just days after a hard-fought 0-0 draw against Wellington Phoenix in New Zealand. Despite the packed schedule, Talay and his team are determined to capitalize on their recent momentum.
Speaking to the press, Talay emphasized the importance of recent tactical adjustments, notably moving Rhyan Grant to a central defensive role. Grant’s leadership has provided much-needed stability to the youthful backline, and the changes have reaped rewards in recent matches. According to Talay, the players' positive response to these shifts has been instrumental in their current run of form.

While Sydney FC sits in fourth place, Brisbane Roar finds itself struggling at the bottom of the table. However, Talay was quick to dismiss any complacency, noting that Brisbane remains a challenging opponent capable of playing quality football. The Sky Blues have their eyes set on climbing the ladder, but they are wary of underestimating their rivals, who are desperate to turn their season around.
Player updates also featured in Talay's briefing. Douglas Costa is targeting a return in early February, while Patrick Wood will join Perth Glory on loan to gain valuable playing time. Max Burgess continues to fight for his spot amidst a competitive squad. Talay praised the contributions of young players stepping up, a testament to Sydney FC’s depth and development programs.
This fixture marks the 60th meeting between the two clubs, with their head-to-head record eerily balanced. Both teams have the same number of wins, losses, and goals scored against each other—a symmetry that adds intrigue to Saturday's clash.
With Sydney FC eager to bounce back from their goalless draw and Brisbane Roar searching for their first win, the stage is set for an exciting encounter. Fans can catch the action live on Paramount+ and Channel 10, with kickoff at 5:00 p.m. AEDT.
