Brisbane Roar vs Newcastle Jets Match Preview

Brisbane Roar is ranked at the 4th place with 32 points and currently in the playoff zone. They come after three wins a draw and a loss over the last five matches and they will need to continue going like this to keep this spot until the end. At home, they have had some very good performances with six wins two draws and just two losses in ten games.

Despite having to play here without their fans, I expect them to be able to get a positive result considering they have a very solid defense and at home conceded just 11 goals so far. Also here they are on a six-game streak where they have not lost a game and I think they can extend it.

Newcastle Jets, on the other hand, are ranked at the 9th place with 21 points. They come in surprisingly good shape as they have not lost any of the last five matches, collecting three wins and two draws. They are six points behind the playoff zone and while I give them credit for what they have done recently, I still think they have woken up a bit late for trying and recover from that dreadful start.

On the road, they have won just twice so far and it was against teams weaker than Brisbane Roar. The previous h2h match between them earlier this season ended in a 1-1 draw.

In conclusion, I think Brisbane Roar can win this match or get at least a draw. They play at home where they have earned more than 60% of their points and despite having to play without spectators, I do not see them losing this. Newcastle Jets is running a good momentum but they have not been that solid this season especially on the road to trust them with a win here.
