Western United, Recent FormLosing 2-0 away to Wellington Phoenix won't leave the Western United squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 11 places above them in the league. They came away from that fixture with 47% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Wellington Phoenix managed 10 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.
They have bagged 6 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 12 times in that period. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 17 games, and so far this season they have failed to score in 8 of their 15 games.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 7 games.
Newcastle United Jets, Recent FormAn important point secured against Western Sydney Wanderers will have left Newcastle United Jets quite happy with their 3-3 draw. Their share of possession in that meeting was 56%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target. Western Sydney Wanderers had 20 shots on goal with 9 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 10 goals they managed at the other end.
