Newcastle Jets vs Melbourne Victory: Top Free Betting Tips

Melbourne Victory will be keen to extend their winning form when they host Newcastle Jets in the next league fixture on Sunday, 12 February. The Jets have dropped two points once again in the last game against Perth Glory.

Match Result Prediction: Draw

Melbourne Victory has been favourable at the home of Newcastle Jets with four wins in the last five duels, losing zero. However, the Big V are winless in the last four league attempts away from home, losing three of them. On the other hand, the Jets have found their winning form at home recently but they have ended three of the last four league games in draws. So we predict only a tie between these teams to share the points.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Newcastle Jets thrashed four goals in the last attempt at home but they have a total of only six goals in the previous five hosting duels. The  Jets also kept a clean sheet in the last home game in the league. Melbourne Victory has rattled the net only four times in the same number of away attempts in the A-League. Three of the previous five meetings of these teams at Newcastle Jets’ home have ended with low-scoring patterns. Following the current stats, we predict another total of below 2.5 goals in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-1 Draw

Newcastle Jets have hit the target more than once in only one of the last five home games and Melbourne Victory scored only one goal per game in four of the previous five visits. The hosts have also conceded only four goals in the recent four A-League outings. Melbourne Victory scored twice per game in the recent visits to Newcastle Jets but the Big V has not scored more than once in the seven away games. So we expect a scoreline of 1-1 at the end of ninety minutes in this game.
