Newcastle Jets
AustraliaCurrent form
The Newcastle Jets were one of the main outsiders of the championship at the beginning of the season, but recently the team has managed to pull itself together and began to climb the standings, but it's too late to fight for the playoffs. The visitors occupy the ninth place in the standings and are already nine points behind the sixth Western Sydney Wanderers, with one match left. In February, the Newcastle club won three in a row, beating Melbourne Victory (3-0), Adelaide United (2-1) and Brisbane Roar (3-1). In the last round, Robert Stanton's team managed to take away points from the clear leader of the championship, Auckland (1:1).

The hosts have won three of the last four with this score.
9.50Bet At least one team won't score
This bet was played in the last three face-to-face matches
2.20The bid is the number 1 in the final bill
This pattern has worked in the last three away matches.
1.80Tip and bets
The hosts became the least missed team in the Australian championship. The club conceded only 17 goals in 19 matches, and in the last six winning matches it managed to keep its goal intact. The guests have also greatly improved their defensive game, so it is unlikely that the duel between these rivals will be productive.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals in 2.35
Betting on the outcome
The guests have shown a great game lately, but the hosts are performing no worse. Melbourne City has been playing at about the same level all season and will surely be able to surpass the Newcastle Jets, who have only recently gained form. City can come in second place if they win and will certainly take advantage of this chance.
Our betting tip is an Asian handicap (-1) on Melbourne City in 2.00
Betting on corners
Most likely, the opponents will play defensively, which means that a lot of serves from the corner flag are not expected. We suggest betting on a total of less in this indicator.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 10.5 corners in 1.90
