On Sunday, January 8, Macarthur will play Newcastle Jets at the Campbelltown Sports Stadium in a mid-table A-League matchup. With 14 points, the hosts are in sixth place in the standings, and the visitors are two places and points behind them.
When Macarthur lost 4-0 to Western Sydney Wanderers on Sunday, their two-game winning streak came to an end. In contrast, Newcastle lost their 2-0 home defeat to Sydney on Sunday, their third defeat in four games.
In their previous meeting with the Jets in May, the Bulls failed to score at home, and they will attempt to avenge that defeat. In contrast, Newcastle has scored in each of their five encounters with Macarthur, and this may continue.
Next in line, Newcastle Jets!

Since they have not scored in three of their last four league games, the visitors may struggle here. Macarthur ought to come away with a victory given the two teams’ recent history.
Prediction: Macarthur 2-0 Newcastle Jets
In the A-League, the two teams have met five times since 2021. Despite two draws, the hosts hold a 2-1 lead. In May, Newcastle won their first and only A-League match against Macarthur (3-0), and it was also the first time Macarthur had not scored against their northern rivals.
The two teams have scored more than 2.5 goals in each of their five meetings. Newcastle has lost more games than any other team in the A-League this season, (6). With nine goals scored in ten games, the visitors have the second-worst offensive record in the competition.
With 17 goals conceded in ten games, Newcastle also has the third-worst defensive record in the A-League. In their last five games, Macarthur has won three of their five games this season.
