The Newcastle Jets and Melbourne City will meet at the McDonald Jones Stadium for a Matchday 7 clash in the A-League on Saturday. The Jets are 11th in the league standings, while Hearts are fifth. Let's get into the match prediction.
The Newcastle Jets finally managed to get themselves off the foot of the table last weekend when they battled through a downpour to stun Auckland 2-1 at the Go Media Stadium.
That result would have given the side a massive boost after losing three games in a row. The Jets are now aiming to win back-to-back league games for the first time since February.
The hosts have won one and lost two of their three home games this season. Their three matches at McDonald Jones Stadium this term have averaged five goals per 90.
Meanwhile, after taking a huge step toward the knockout round of the AFC Champions League, Melbourne City returned to league action with a goalless draw against the Mariners last week.
Notably, that was their third match in nine days and in a third different state. Aurelio Vidmar rotated his squad for that match, and may have to do so again here with a trip to Seoul on the calendar in four days.
This is City’s fifth away league game this season (W1 D3 L1). However, they have won each of their last four matches at this venue.

The Jets earned a morale-boosting victory in Auckland last week, but the conditions in that match massively levelled the playing field. They have still only won two games this season and have not recorded back-to-back league wins since February.
Melbourne City have been navigating a jam-packed fixture schedule, and another short turnaround awaits this coming week. However, they will want to bounce back from last week’s disappointment here and try to carry that momentum to Seoul in midweek. Our Newcastle Jets vs Melbourne City prediction is Melbourne City wins.
