Newcastle Jets 9/5 to beat Perth Glory in Wednesday’s A-League battle

Competition: A-League

Market: Newcastle Jets win

Odds: 9/5 @ 888sport

Looking to extend on what has been a recent purple patch, Newcastle Jets will make the trip to Perth Glory on Wednesday morning.

Starting with the hosts, last seen putting in another worrying display, Perth find themselves in the midst of what has been an extended rut this year. In their 17 A-League matchups so far this season, they have recorded just three wins, four draws and 10 defeats, scoring 14 and conceding 22 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 13 and opening the midweek fixtures sat four points adrift at the foot of the table, it should also be noted that the Glory hold the worst-attacking tally in the division. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-1 defeat against Wellington on the road, Perth have failed to win any of their last eight A-League matchups, suffering six defeats. Likewise, Wednesday’s hosts have collected just a single point from any of their previous six home fixtures.

As for the visitors, managing to find what has been an eye-catching boost recently, Newcastle should be smelling the chance to extend on their purple patch. In their 17 A-League matchups so far this season, they have recorded six wins, three draws and eight defeats, scoring 30 and conceding 28 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 21, they open the midweek fixtures sat ninth in the table and holding an eight-point buffer over Wednesday’s opponents. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 2-0 win against former champions Sydney, Newcastle have recorded back-to-back A-League victories for the first time this season. Likewise, losing just one of their last four meetings against a struggling Perth, an away victory can be found at very attractive odds here.
