Both teams to score at Wellington Phoenix vs Newcastle Jets 4/6 for Wednesday’s A-League showdown

Competition: A-League

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 4/6 @ 888sport

In a contest that could see chances come at both ends of the pitch on Wednesday morning, Wellington Phoenix will host Newcastle Jets.

Starting with the hosts, while Wellington would have been disappointed to have had to settle for a single point last time out, they are enjoying an eye-catching run of form. In their 12 A-League matchups so far this season, they have recorded five wins, three draws and four defeats, scoring 15 and conceding 18 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 18, they open the midweek fixtures sat seventh in the standings and with just their goal difference keeping them outside the top-half. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen settling for a 1-1 draw against Sydney on home soil, Wellington are unbeaten in each of their last five A-League outings. Likewise, it should also be highlighted, Wednesday’s hosts have seen four of their last six home fixtures finish with both teams finding the net.

As for the visitors, last seen making a return to losing ways, Newcastle do have the feel of a side seeking some much-needed stability. In their 13 A-League matchups so far this season, they have recorded four wins, three draws and six defeats, scoring 21 and conceding 23 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 15, they open the midweek fixtures sat eighth in the standings and just three points adrift of Wednesday’s opponents. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-1 loss against Western United on the road, Newcastle have managed to win just one of their last four A-League outings. Likewise, it should also be highlighted, with the Jets seeing seven of their last nine contests finish with both teams finding the net, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
