Newcastle Jets and Central Coast Mariners will face off at the McDonald Jones Stadium in the final week of the 2025-26 A-League season on Saturday. The Jets lead the league standings, while the Mariners are in eighth place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
It has been a record-breaking season for the Newcastle Jets. They will be taking their victory lap this weekend, as they were confirmed as this season’s Premiers last weekend.
The Jets were held to a 2-2 draw by Melbourne Victory last week and are winless in three. However, they are four points above Auckland, who lost to the Mariners 1-0 last week.
The hosts have taken 19 points from their 12 home games this season, which is the fourth-best home record to date. They also beat this opponent 6-0 at this venue last term.
Meanwhile, it has been another disappointing season for the Central Coast Mariners. Trailing the top six by five points, they are set to miss out on the Finals series for a second season in a row.
The Mariners’ victory over Auckland last week ended the Black Knights’ hopes of a title defence. It also ended their own five-game winless run since March 14 in the top flight.
The visitors have earned exactly half of their 32-point tally this season on the road (W5 D1 L6). Before their big loss here last season, the Mariners won seven in a row at this venue.
