Brisbane Roar will be looking to end their run of four consecutive defeats when they play host to Newcastle Jets in the Australian A-League on Sunday.
Robert Stanton’s men have failed to win their last four visits to the Suncorp Stadium and will head into the weekend seeking to end this poor run.
Brisbane Roar failed to stop the rot as they suffered a 2-1 home defeat at the hands of Sydney FC in their first outing of the year.
Ben Cahn’s side have now lost their last four outings, including a humiliating 8-1 thrashing against Melbourne City on December 28.
While Brisbane Roar will be looking to end this poor run, they have struggled to grind out results at home, where they have picked up just one point in their last three matches.
Elsewhere, Newcastle Jets were left with their head in their hands last time out as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Macarthur after conceding a 99th-minute equaliser.
However, Stanton’s men have now gone unbeaten in four of their last five matches, with a 3-1 defeat at Adelaide United on December 22 being the exception.
With 13 points from 11 matches, Newcastle Jets are currently 10th in the A-League table, one point and one place below Sunday’s hosts.
