Brisbane Roar vs Newcastle Jets Preview

Brisbane Roar have quietly moved into the top four, but they need to overcoming the resurgent Newcastle Jets in this Week 27 fixture to consolidate their position.

The Roar have only lost two of their last 12. They snared wins over WSW (3-1) and Central Coast (1-0) in the past fortnight, with Scott McDonald scoring three of their four goals. The Jets – still six points adrift of the top six – are unbeaten in their last six games, beating Perth (2-1) and Adelaide (3-0) either side of their Week 22 bye.

The Jets are unbeaten in their last seven against the Roar, winning five. They are also on a three-game winning streak in Brisbane. The teams’ encounter in Newcastle earlier this season finished in a 1-all draw.

It’s a big game for both sides: the Roar don’t want to lose ground, while the Jets need to keep banking points to stay in the playoffs hunt. Expect the hosts to try and grind their way to the win by relying on their defensive backbone.
