- The last victory in Sydney was a 3-2 result in Round 2 of Season 8
- The Jets haven't conceded a first half goal to Sydney in their last 6 meetings.
- The Jets are currently undefeated away from home this year.
- The Jets have scored the first goal in Sydney only 3 times but have won the match on each of those occasions
- Should the Jets fail to score in the first half of this match, they will equal the record of 8 consecutive matches without a first half goal.
- The Jet have kept their opposition scoreless in the first half of the last 4 matches.
- Sydney haven't scored a goal in the last 250 minutes of play.
- The Jets have won both Friday night matches this season.
