Brisbane Roar are determined to continue their winning form as they head South to face the Western Sydney Wanderers on Friday night in Round 13 of the Ninja A-League.
The Wanderers got the best of Brisbane in their last meeting at Spencer Park; therefore, Alex Smith’s side will be hungry for another big three points on the road.
WHAT WAS SAID
“We weren’t at our best when we played them at home last game, so we’re going to need to be ready and up for the fight,” Smith said.
“We need to go down there with the attitude of “it’s going to be tough” and we need to be ready for anything they throw at us.”
