In the 15th round of the A-League regular season, Western United will face Newcastle Jets on Friday, January 17. Here’s a detailed analysis and prediction for the match.

Western United vs Newcastle Jets: Match Facts and H2H

  • Western United are unbeaten in their last two home matches.
  • Newcastle Jets have won two of their last five games.
  • United have conceded at least one goal in their last three matches.
  • The Jets have scored in their last three away games.
  • Western United score more than 1.5 goals per game in 77% of matches this season.
  • In 31% of their matches this season, United score in both halves.
  • United concede in both halves in 46% of their games this season.
  • Newcastle Jets defeated Western United 4-1 in their most recent meeting and have won three of the last five encounters, with United winning the other two.

Match Preview

Western United had a rocky start to the season, winning only once in their first seven matches, with four losses and two draws. However, their fortunes have turned around, winning four consecutive games and five of their last six matches. As a result, United have accumulated 21 points from their first 13 rounds and are currently in sixth place, just inside the playoff spots, with a two-point lead over the seventh-placed team.

Newcastle Jets, in contrast, have struggled significantly. They started their campaign with one win and five losses in their first six games, including three goalless defeats. Across 11 matches, the Jets have managed only 10 points and sit in 11th place. Although they have two games in hand compared to United, bridging the 11-point gap seems highly challenging. Particularly given that Newcastle has scored just 13 goals in 11 matches, the third-worst tally in the league.

Predicted Lineups

  • Western United: Sutton, Leonard, Russell, Imai, Garuccio, Turgate, Bozinovski, Botic, Vickery, Valati, Ibusuki
  • Newcastle Jets: Scott, Wilmering, Cancar, Natta, Aquilina, Grozos, Timmins, Scarcelli, Bayliss, Taylor, Gibson

Prediction

Western United are in excellent form and have shown consistency in recent matches, which cannot be said for their opponents. The Jets remain inconsistent and struggle to score regularly. My prediction is a victory for Western United, with odds of 1.79.
