Newcastle United Jets, Recent FormNewcastle United Jets will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 1-0 away win against Adelaide United. Their share of possession in that meeting was 42%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Adelaide United, who had 15 shots on goal with 3 on target.
Manager Arthur Papas will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, with them having managed to score 4 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 11 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have clocked up an impressive run of form in front of goal at McDonald Jones Stadium recently, having found the net in 5 of their last 6 home matches. Papas will be concerned about his leaky defence after they have failed to keep a clean sheet at home for 8 games in a row.
They have lost 4 of their last 6 matches, which will be a focus of concern, but their 2 wins in that period did produce some valuable points nevertheless.
Sydney FC, Recent FormThe Sydney FC squad will want to put the 3-0 home thrashing they received from Macarthur FC firmly behind them and may also need to find something to boost their confidence levels as a consequence. They achieved 57% possession in that match and had 12 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Macarthur FC's tally of 23 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
Manager Steve Corica will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 7 goals they managed at the other end. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 12 games.
Losing 4 of their last 6 games will be causing some concern in the Sydney camp, but their 2 wins salvaged some valuable points.
With 4 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Sydney FC, Adam Le Fondre will be looking to add more goals against Newcastle United Jets in this match.
It was not a positive ending for Sydney FC last time they met Newcastle United Jets in the league, with the game ending in a 2-0 defeat.
Goals should be on the cards for NU Jets in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against The Sky Blues in their last 8 meetings together.
Sydney have failed to manage a victory in their last 3 encounters in the league against NU Jets.
Adam Le Fondre will be feeling confident of netting goals for Sydney in this one against NU Jets with his scoring record of 3 goals in their last 5 meetings in the league.
With no real injury worries, NU Jets manager Arthur Papas will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Sydney manager Steve Corica has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
