Brisbane Roar vs Newcastle Jets Prediction

The Brisbane Roar have endured a miserable start to the campaign as they sit rock-bottom in the Australian A League table. The Queenslanders remain the only winless team in the league, having collected just two points from their ten matches so far this season. They now face a Newcastle Jets side that have themselves won just two and are struggling down towards the bottom end of the table after the visitors’ 2-2 draw with Sydney at the weekend. These are two of the poorest sides in Australia with a low-scoring, low quality affair to be expected for this one in Brisbane.
