Western United will be hoping to close the gap to the A-League leaders when they travel to the McDonald Jones Stadium to face the Newcastle Jets on Sunday. The Jets are ninth in the league standings, while Western are in second place. Let’s get into the match prediction!
After a torrid start to the season, during which they lost six of their first eight games, the Newcastle Jets seem to have now found their rhythm and enter this match following a 1-0 win over Melbourne City.
That win was the Jets’ seventh league game unbeaten dating back to the end of January and marked their fourth victory in their last five top-flight matches.
The hosts are also unbeaten in their last four home games and scored two goals in three of those - a massive upturn after going winless in their first six home matches this season.
Meanwhile, Western United have made significant strides forward this season after finishing 11th last term. They are now on 35 points after 20 games and trail league leaders Auckland by six.
United secured a comfortable 4-1 home win over Wellington Phoenix last week and are now riding a three-match win streak while scoring three or more goals in each of those victories.
The visitors have also been in great shape on the road of late, winning six of their last eight away games. They only failed to score two or more goals in one match during that period.
