Preview:
Potentially the most intriguing match of the round will play out in the Hunter on Saturday night when the last start winning Jets host Western Sydney.
The Jets enter this match refreshed from a week off and prior to that, a classy win over Western United away from home. They are only a couple off the bottom of the ladder, but with plenty of scope to improve.
Following an outstanding start to the season, the Wanderers are now actually winless in their last three and will need to stem that run of form immediately if they are to remain in the top four. They were very unlucky not concede in the 92nd minute and ultimately lose to Melbourne City last week and a repeat of their performance would likely see them too strong for the Jets.
