Player to watch: Yonathan Cohen
As mentioned earlier in our professional Melbourne City vs Newcastle Jets prediction, Cohen is the top finisher for his team this season. However, he is also doing a fine job at creating goals, as he already added an assist to his 2024/25 A-League tally.
Second player to watch: Clayton Taylor
You might be interested to find out that Taylor is outscoring Cohen! The Jets’ striker found the net on five occasions, and will surely do his best to cause mayhem at Melbourne Rectangular Stadium as well.
