The Newcastle Jets will play host to Sydney FC in the second leg of their A-League Playoff semi-final tie on Saturday. The first leg between the Jets and the Sky Blues ended level at 1-1, and our prediction is that both teams will get on the scoresheet in this match as well.
The Newcastle Jets were crowned A-League Premiers for the first time ever this season by finishing five points ahead of second-placed Adelaide United with a record of W15 D3 L8.
The Jets defeated Central Coast Mariners 4-0 on the final day of the regular season and are unbeaten in their last four games (W1 D3). They were the highest-scoring team in the division with 55 goals.
The hosts had the third-best home record in the A-League this season (W7 D1 L5) and beat this opponent 2-0 at this venue in their regular-season matchup in December.
Meanwhile, after finishing fifth in the regular season, Sydney FC booked their spot in the Playoff semi-finals by beating Melbourne Victory 1-0 in the Elimination final last week.
The Sky Blues are now unbeaten in their last six matches (W2 D4), a period during which they kept an impressive four clean sheets and only conceded three goals.
The visitors are also unbeaten in their last four away games (W3 D1) and shut out their opponents in each of those matches. However, they have conceded in each of their last four visits to this venue.

Our Newcastle United Jets vs Sydney Prediction
The Newcastle Jets have been excellent this season, and the cornerstone of their success has been their impressive attacking output, albeit that has been necessary, given their tendency to concede fairly frequently.
Sydney’s strength this season has been their defence, but keeping out the Jets, especially at home, is a massive ask. Six of the last seven games between these sides ended with both teams scoring, and we’re expecting the same in this one. Our Newcastle Jets vs Sydney FC prediction is BTTS.
