Both sides cancelled each other out in the opening 45 minutes, with Besart Berisha - who opened the scoring in the 3-1 victory over Western Sydney Wanderers last week - the recipient of the game's first opportunity, but the 27-year-old saw his volley tipped over by goalkeeper Danny Vukovic.
The Albania international would not be denied though, as the striker fired home the winning goal on 57 minutes following a good pass from Thomas Broich.
Ian Ferguson's men tried but failed in their quest to restore parity and Roar held on to extend their lead over second-placed Western Sydney to seven points.
