Perth Glory vs Newcastle Jets Prediction

Perth Glory's defeat to Western United ended their six-game unbeaten run (three wins) and Alen Stajcic's side will be hoping to get back to winning ways. However, the Glory have recent history against them as they are winless in the last 10-head-to-head games (three losses).

This could be a source of inspiration for Newcastle Jets who have not won any of their last six games. Robert Stanton's side have the joint-worst away defensive record in the league, having conceded 26 goals in just 11 games on their travels.

Games between these two sides tend to be high-scoring while seven of the last 10 head-to-head games have ended in a draw. We are backing the two sides to cancel each other out in a high-scoring stalemate.
