Team news of NJ vs MLC:
Melbourne City are missing two central defenders indefinitely as both Richard Windbichler (hamstring) and Jack Hendry (knee) are suffering ongoing issues.
Two defensive-minded players are also absent for the Jets, with Ben Kantarovski and Lachlan Jackson both likely to miss the remainder of the campaign.
Match Preview of NJ vs MLC:
Newcastle have improved significantly since Robinson arrived as their new coach – and were on a six-game unbeaten run until being beaten by Brisbane.
The recent signings of Joe Ledley and Roy O’Donovan provided a boost to the squad depth, while Wes Hoolahan’s return from injury has given the team some class.
City look primed to be the best challenger to stop Sydney FC going back-to-back, but games like this are ones that they have dropped in the past.
Striker Jamie Maclaren is currently leading the A-League golden boot competition with 18 goals, after going ahead of Sky Blue poacher Adam Le Fondre (16) with a hat-trick against the Mariners.
