On Friday morning (CET), Newcastle Jets and Brisbane Roar go head-to-head in the A-League, as both teams look for consistency in the Australian top flight.
Newcastle Jets
The home team's recent form has not been great, as a 2-1 win over Central Coast Mariners ended a three-game losing run for the Jets. The game also ended a poor defensive run for Arthur Papastamatis’ team, as they had conceded at least two goals in their previous three matches in the A-League.
The game against the Mariners continued a recent high-scoring trend for Newcastle Jets, as it was the fifth game in their last six league matches that produced over 2.5 goals.
Newcastle Jets have a poor recent home record, winning just two of their last six matches in the A-League while losing three games in the process. Their recent home games in the league have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in five of their last seven matches.
Brisbane Roar
The visitors are currently in tenth place in the A-League table, having taken seven points from their six league matches so far this season. Although the Roar head into this game unbeaten in four A-League matches, they have won just one of their six league matches in the current campaign.
Their A-League games this season have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their six league matches.
Brisbane Roar has really struggled on their travels in recent seasons, winning just one of their last 15 away games in the A-League dating back to May 2021. Like their recent league games in general, their recent away matches in the Australian top flight have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five games.
