Newcastle United Jets, Recent FormThe 3-1 away defeat to Central Coast Mariners will not have sat easily with the Newcastle United Jets squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. Their share of possession in that meeting was 44%, while racking up 6 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Central Coast Mariners, who had 13 shots on goal with 8 on target.
Manager Rob Stanton will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 14 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 9 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.

In that game they recorded 55 % of the possession, with 21 attempts on goal, 6 on target. Their opponents found the target on 6 of their 8 shots on goal.
