Newcastle United Jets
- Newcastle United Jets have been solid in the Australia Cup but, according to our Newcastle United Jets vs Perth Glory betting tips, their A-League 2025-2026 form has been erratic, posting two wins and three defeats across the last five in all competitions.
- Mark Milligan’s side have lost their last two matches, suffering a 3-0 defeat away at the Brisbane Roar FC and a 4-1 home defeat to Sydney FC.
- They sit comfortably as favorites at 1.87 for this Sunday’s matchup with Perth Glory, who are 12th on the table with one point from four games, compared to the Jets’ 10th placed position with three points from four.
- Milligan has instilled his attacking philosophy since taking the reins at the beginning of July 2025, with the side playing a high-tempo, flexible brand of soccer based around quick transitions and energetic pressing.
Perth Glory
- Perth Glory have failed to score or win in their only A-League away game in 2025-2026 (L1).
- The visitors currently have no permanent manager as David Zdrilic parted ways with the club in late October 2025.
- Instead, they face Newcastle under the interim guidance of Adam Griffiths, who has been trying to calm the ship after a turbulent few weeks.
- Griffiths is a firm believer in playing a possession-based brand of football, a recent departure from Zdrilic’s more aggressive style of pressing and wide wingbacks.
Head-to-Head
- The Jets and Glory drew 2-2 at McDonald Jones Stadium in the 2024/2025 A-League, a fixture that adds extra intrigue for those looking for Newcastle United Jets vs Perth Glory betting tips ahead of this season's clash.
- Newcastle have conceded six goals in two A-League 2025-2026 home matches.
Key Players
- Alexander Badolato
- Alexander Badolato has scored four goals in four A-League appearances, providing four of the hosts’ nine goals across their last five, meaning Badolato is a man in form and a clinical finisher that cannot be left alone.
- Adam Taggart
- Taggart’s ability to play off the ball and the sharpness of his movement make him the biggest threat in a struggling Glory attack.
Betting Insights
- Newcastle are the favourites here, but with 3.51 for the visitors, the spread looks too large to ignore, given how the hosts have performed recently - making this Newcastle United Jets vs Perth Glory prediction all the more compelling for punters.
- The Over 2.5 goals market is listed at 1.34 and looks extremely short, as it should be with two attack-minded teams meeting.
Prediction
