KEY FACTS:
General
- Newcastle haven’t scored against Adelaide in the last 4 matches.
- Both results this season have 0-0 draws.
- Last week’s defeat was the club’s heaviest defeat at home and the second worst defeat in the club’s history. It came exactly 1 year after the 7-0 loss to Adelaide.
- The Jets haven’t scored away from home since Rd4 against Melbourne City
Players
- Mateo Poljak, Ben Kantarovski and Milos Trifunovic are all 1 booking away from an automatic suspension
- Ben Kantarovski equals Matt Thompson’s number of A-League appearance (121) for the Jets this weekend.
- Steven Ugarkovic could become the 136th player to appear for the Jets in the A-League.
- Milos Trifunovic has a goals per minute ratio of 1 goal every 213 minutes. Some notable comparisons are Joel Griffith (198), Adam Taggart (168), Milton Rodriguez (200) and Sasho Petrovski (137).
- Nigel Boogaard set a new club record as the quickest player to receive 2 red cards for the Jets. Boogaard took 12 matches while the previous holder, Mateo Corbo, took 14.
Coaches
- Scott Miller’s Jets remain the least potent goalscorers in the club’s history.
Newcastle Jets
- The Jets have only received 1 penalty in this fixture’s history.
- At least one Jets player has received a booking in every match in this fixture’s history.
- Newcastle have lost their last 3 matches on the road.
- Newcastle have never defeated Adelaide on a Sunday.
- I’m ordering Indian food Sunday because that’s my tradition for Adelaide away games following last year’s thrashing.
Adelaide United
- With 3 wins on the trot and being undefeated in 8 matches, Adelaide are the current form team in the league.
- Eugene Galekovic has kept 10 clean sheets against the Jets.
