Newcastle Jets team news and form: Robert Stanton with changes
Oscar Fryer won’t play for Newcastle Jets this week. He picked up a cruciate ligament tear and will be out of action for a couple of more weeks at least. Surely, Stanton will find the right man to fill in the Fryer-shaped hole.
Predicted lineup: James (GK), Aquilina, Grozos, Natta, Bayliss, Wilmering, Timmins, Mizunuma, Taylor, Rose & Adams

Player to watch: Hiroshi Ibusuki
Japanese striker Hiroshi Ibusuki is the 2nd-best finisher for the visitors this season. During the 2024/25 A-League campaign, he managed to find the net on nine occasions. Surely, he will do his very best to disprove our key Newcastle Jets vs Western United predictions this week.
Second player to watch: Noah Botic
Botic is the right man for Western United, it seems. His tally reached the impressive double digits, as he now has 10 goals under his belt for Western United this season.
