A-League Preview: Macarthur FC Starts Season with Record-Breaking Win, Newcastle Jets Struggle Without Key Player

On October 25 at 16:35, in the second round of the A-League season, Macarthur FC will face Newcastle Jets. Macarthur FC secured a significant victory in the first round and aims to continue their momentum for a second consecutive win. Meanwhile, Newcastle Jets seek to avenge their elimination from the FFA Cup by Macarthur FC.

During the off-season, Macarthur FC made substantial personnel changes, signing Alslanagic, Bresciano, Ross, Jakolis, Konomitis, and Sawyer, enhancing their strength compared to last season. Newcastle Jets signed Lachlan Rose, Velisavljevic, and Susjara to bolster their midfield and defense, but forward Freers will continue to be absent due to an ACL tear.

In the first round, Macarthur FC achieved a record-breaking 6-1 victory over Perth Glory, marking the largest margin of victory in the opening round of the A-League. Both new signings, Jakolis and Germain, scored goals. In contrast, Newcastle Jets lost 0-1 to Melbourne City in their first match, with new signing Velisavljevic underperforming and failing to meet the team’s expectations of replacing former key player Stamatis.

Since the start of the FFA Cup, Macarthur FC has won six consecutive matches, including the 6-1 victory that placed them at the top of the table. Additionally, they have won two consecutive home games across seasons.

Newcastle Jets have only managed 5 wins, 6 draws, and 9 losses in their last 20 official matches, with a win rate of just 25%. This match against Macarthur FC will be Newcastle Jets’ first away game of the season. In the last 8 away games of the previous A-League season, Newcastle Jets won only one match.

In the 11 encounters between the two teams since the 2021 season, Macarthur FC holds a slight edge with 4 wins, 4 draws, and 3 losses. In the FFA Cup in August, Newcastle Jets lost 3-4 to Macarthur FC in a high-scoring match. The two teams drew both times they met in the A-League last season, with both matches featuring goals.

Capitalizing on the momentum from their opening round victory, Macarthur FC aims to secure another win. Despite losing in the first round, Newcastle Jets are determined to avenge their FFA Cup defeat by Macarthur FC.
