Macarthur FC vs Newcastle Jets Head To Head

These two teams have split their two previous meetings this season at one win apiece. Macarthur prevailed 5-4 in a Boxing Day thriller before the Jets dug out a 1-0 victory in Round 18 courtesy of Lachie Bayliss' 54th minute strike.

Macarthur Back Into The Top Six

It's been a wild season for Macarthur as they head into this clash with a 7-7-8 record and in sixth spot on the ladder.

The Bulls started the season strongly, but perhaps juggling continental football caused some fatigue as the team faded in late January.

Macarthur went on an eight-game winless run as they were knocked out of Asia by Bangkok United and tumbled out of the finals spots in the A-League.

However, Mile Sterjovski's side produced a resurgent 2-1 win over second-placed Auckland before the break, with Rafael Durán and Tomislav Uskok's goals sending them back into the top six.

Newcastle Jets Four Points Clear

It's been a dream season for the Jets, who come into this contest four points clear at the top of the ladder, winning 14 of their 22 games.

Newcastle responded brilliantly to their first defeat since Boxing Day against Auckland a couple of weeks ago, scoring a dramatic late winner to conquer Sydney FC 2-1 at Allianz.

Japanese veteran Kota Mizunuma put the Jets in front with a glorious strike in the opening half, but the Jets couldn't hold out Sydney after the break, conceding midway through the second half.

The game appeared destined for a share of the spoils before Xavier Bertoncello made a late dash down the flank, delivering a pinpoint cross for Ben Gibson, who made no mistake with his finish to send the Jets fans into euphoric celebrations.

Newcastle are now nine games unbeaten on the road, winning eight.

Verdict

The Jets are tipped for another strong performance on the road in a game that sees under 3.5 goals.
