Melbourne City vs Newcastle Jets Preview & Prediction

City know three points are essential when they entertain the struggling Jets at AAMI Park on Saturday afternoon in A-League Round 22 action.

It’s been a poor season by City’s lofty standards, but they’ve proven what they’re capable of when at their best, registering some huge wins at different stages of the campaign.

One of those victories came in their last outing before the break, with City thumping the Wanderers 7-0 – the second time they’ve scored seven or more goals for the season.

City are now in seventh spot heading into this encounter, two points adrift of the Wanderers and Sydney FC above them.

Meanwhile, it’s been another woeful season for the Jets, who are set to miss the finals once again after winning just four of their 22 games.

Newcastle are in danger of folding as a club due to their ongoing ownership issues and need a buyer ASAP in order to remain in the competition from next season.

Results on the field aren’t helping, with the Jets winning just one of their last 12 games and none of their last eight.

VERDICT:

City have won four of the last five meetings between the teams and are by far the superior team. It feels like City are clicking back into gear on fear of missing out on the finals, so expect a comfortable win here for the hosts (Best City win H2H odds $1.57 with bet365.)
