Melbourne Victory vs Newcastle Jets Lineups & Team News
Melbourne Victory
The fans at Allianz Stadium got to see two evenly-matched teams on the 21st of October. However, Anthony Popovic’s boys managed to take advantage of their goalscoring chances, unlike Sydney. That’s why the four-time Aussie champions are now in 2nd place with three points to their name, while Sydney are at the bottom of the table.
Predicted lineup – Izzo (GK), Traore, Roderick, Da Silva, Geria, Marchan, Velupillay, Teague, Arzani, Machach & Fornaroli
Newcastle Jets
Thanks to Apostolos Stamatelopoulos’ 92nd-minute equalizer in the match against Perth Glory, Newcastle Jets didn’t begin their A-League campaign with a loss. The talented 24-year-old attacker is the key weapon that coach Stanton has at his disposal, and seeing as he’s fit and ready for action, we can’t wait for the kick-off.
Predicted lineup – Scott (GK), Mauragis, Natta, Hoffman, Jenkinson, Ingham, Grozos, Berthomier, Taylor, Stamatelopoulos & Buhagiar
Player to Watch: Roderick Miranda
As we stated earlier in our Melbourne Victory vs Newcastle Jets prediction, coach Anthony Popovic’s players succeeded in their quest to steal three points at Allianz Stadium. It was Roderick Miranda’s top-notch defensive work that helped Melbourne Victory not only win the three points but also record an impressive clean sheet. It’s not every day that you record a clean sheet against the current Australian Cup winner.
