Australia A-League - Newcastle Jets vs Melbourne City Preview

Newcastle United Jets are going up against visiting rivals Melbourne City at McDonald Jones Stadium in this A-League meeting on Tuesday.

 

Newcastle Jets

Newcastle Jets have certainly improved on last season and are currently 10th in the table. They have played fairly consistently in attack, scoring goals in consecutive games, but their defence has not improved and is still prone to losing the ball, which may be a problem in this game.

 

Melbourne City

Melbourne City, although the champions of last season, have only 3 wins after 9 league games this season, and the defensive performance is not good, conceding goals in 4 consecutive games, fortunately, the main striker MacLaren is very good, he has scored 5 goals, his form determines the teams result.

 

Verdict:

Neither team was in great form, but Melbourne city was the stronger team. The 1X2 first odds is 3.40-3.75-1.95, which means support the away team. Melbourne City should win this game.
