Newcastle Jets team news and form: Injury-infested Jets
The home side’s manager will not be able to count on the likes of Aleksandar Susnjar, Dane Ingham, and youngster Oscar Fryer. This gives Melbourne Victory a can’t-miss chance to record some easy points this week.

Melbourne Victory team news and form: Eight points needed
Coach Arthur Diles needs to win a couple of more games if he wants to dethrone in-form Auckland from 1st place. Seeing as he will be able to count on most of his key players this week, we believe Melbourne Victory will be a step closer to the big goal.
Predicted lineup: Langerak (GK), Bos, Roderick, Hamill, Rawlins, Teague, Valadon, Machach, Rodrigues, Velupillay & Fornaroli

Player to watch: Bruno Fornaroli
Fornaroli is enjoying life at Melbourne Rectangular Stadium. Wasn’t always the case. At the beginning of the campaign, he was a bench warmer under coach Patrick Kisnorbo’s rule. However, the new manager appreciates Fornaroli’s talent and the veteran didn’t let him down by scoring three goals.
Second player to watch: Eli Adams
Winger Eli Adams is the Jets’ big hope of getting something on the 8th of February. He scored three goals this season and does have a chance to hurt our Newcastle Jets vs Melbourne Victory prediction.
