Perth Glory vs Newcastle Jets Preview & Prediction

Perth will be hoping to remain in the finals hunt when they welcome the struggling Jets to HBF Park on Saturday night.

Glory were making a late charge for the finals on the back of a six-game unbeaten run, but that pursuit hit a road block last week with a 1-0 loss to last-placed Western United.

Currently eight points off the finals, Perth return home against the second-last team this week and it’s simply a must-win game.

Glory have only suffered two defeats at home against the Jets since 2005, so they should be confident of picking up maximum points.

Newcastle meanwhile appear to have run their race for this season and they will do well do avoid the wooden spoon.

The Jets have won just one of their last 10 games and are coming off a timid 1-0 loss to rivals the Mariners at home last week.

Incredibly, the last four meetings between these teams have ended in a 2-2 draw, but the Jets are in real trouble at the moment and would gladly take a point in their current form.

VERDICT:

As mentioned, these teams have shared the spoils in their last four encounters, but at home, Perth should have the edge. The Jets are woeful at the moment and have traditionally struggled in Western Australia, winning just twice in their history (Best Glory win H2H odds $2.15 with bet365.)
