Beka Mikeltadze to Score Anytime
With Napoli’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia having a tremendous season in Serie A, we tend to forget there’s a certain Georgian player within Newcastle Jets’ ranks that’s also crushing it this year. Beka Mikeltadze to score is our key Newcastle Jets vs Western United prediction this week for a couple of reasons. The first of which is his tally.
With four goals and three assists since the start of the campaign, he’s not only the top Newcastle Jets scorer this season but also one of the key creators. He’s definitely no one-trick pony as some other A-League scorers can be described, and that’s a set of skills any manager would kill to have in their primary striker.
Newcastle Jets to Win
The Jets are the bookies’ favorite to win on the 25th as they are the team with the best momentum in the league. With three victories and two draws in the last five A-League clashes, coach Arthur Papas would also like to boost his unimpressive 0-2-1 tally against Western United.
And what better opportunity to do so? The visitors are having one of the poorest seasons in the last couple of years and their vulnerability has been exploited numerous times during the 2022/23 campaign.

Newcastle Jets odds: 7/5 (2.40) – 41.0%
Draw odds: 47/20 (3.35) – 27.0%
Western United odds: 39/20 (2.95) – 32.0%
Newcastle Jets have a 41.0% likelihood of winning on the 25th at 7/5 (2.40). In comparison, Western United’s odds at 39/20 (2.95) barely give the visitors a 32.0% chance of securing the three points. Considering Newcastle Jets’ momentum, we’d take the 41.0% any day of the week!
Predicted Lineups, Team News, and Last Result
Newcastle Jets
As we previously mentioned in our Newcastle Jets vs Western United predictions, the Jets have the best momentum out of any A-League side. Having not lost a single fixture in the last month, Newcastle Jets’ footballers will play with a fire inside of them versus Western United on the 25th of February as they strive to catch up to the top teams around.
Predicted lineup – Duncan (GK), Hoffman, Jurman, Jenkinson, Ingham, Al-Taay, Thurgate, Grozos, Sotirio, Mikeltadze & Buhagiar
Western United
Currently, at the bottom of the table, Western United is a team that everyone’s happy to face these days. With four victories, four draws, and nine losses since the start of the season, coach John Aloisi’s boys are certainly no one’s favorite to win on Saturday.
Predicted lineup – Young (GK), Tratt, Imai, Lacroix, O’Toole, Wales, Doumbia, Kilkenny, Troisi, Botic & Prijovic

Player to Watch: Jamie Young
Pressure grows on Jamie Young as he keeps conceding cheap goals in the A-League. Wellington Phoenix’s players squeezed three in past him and it would be quite interesting to see if he’ll finally pick himself up and defy all odds to make a solid display against Newcastle Jets on Saturday. Our guess is he’ll disappoint his fans once more but who knows, perhaps a stroke of good fortune by the 37-year-old veteran might put a spoke in our Newcastle Jets vs Western United predictions’ wheel.
