Newcastle Jets hosts Perth Glory in round 25 of the Australian A-League. The match will be played on Saturday, June 5th at McDonald Jones Stadium (Newcastle)
In the previous round, Newcastle Jets unexpectedly beat Central Coast Mariners away (0-2). Such a "miracle" happened after a terrible streak of 14 matches without victories, which included only three draws. In general, the Jets suffered 15 defeats in the current championship, and only the outsider neighbor Melbourne Victory lost more games (17).

Perth Glory approached the match against Brisbane Roar (2-1) with a good mood and a successful streak of six matches without defeats. And everything could have turned out differently, but the equal game was going to a mistake, which was ultimately made by the defender of the Glory Aspropotamitis, who scored an own goal. Separately, it is worth noting a 2-1 victory over the 6th Adelaide United and a convincing 5-1 win in the match against WS Wanderers (quadruple by Andy Keogh).
The bookmakers give a slight advantage to the visitors of the upcoming confrontation. It is understandable, as the team that takes the last place and won only four victories in 24 games cannot be considered a favorite. Beyond that, the Jets are not impressive in the attack. They scored only 21 goals, and this is the worst indicator among all A-League clubs. There is another statistical fact that speaks not in favor of Newcastle on the eve of a home match. At their McDonald Jones Stadium, the hosts upset the opponents' goalkeepers with goals scored only nine times and eventually managed to earn only five points. And the only home victory was gained almost four months ago. Against the background of such results, Perth Glory looks like a quite combat-ready team, and it should at least not lose to weak Newcastle. Moreover, the Glorious Ones did not lose in the last two head-to-head matches (2-1 and 1-1).
Prediction for the match: Perth Glory to win with 0.0 handicap
