Auckland FC vs Newcastle Jets Prediction and Betting Tips | November 29th 2025

Auckland FC will host Newcastle Jets at the Mount Smart Stadium on Saturday in the sixth round of the 2025-26 Australia A-League campaign. The home side have enjoyed a solid start to their season and sit second in the table with 11 points as they continue their quest for back-to-back Premiership titles.

They picked up three straight wins before the international break, but their return to action last weekend was less positive as they were held to a 1-1 home draw by Brisbane Roar. Lechlan Brook opened the scoring for Auckland inside the first 20 minutes with a brilliant free-kick, before the visitors drew level later in the half.

Fresh off winning the 2025 Australia Cup last month, Newcastle Jets have struggled to find form in their league campaign this season. They suffered a disappointing 2-1 home defeat to Perth Glory last weekend, having taken the lead in the 15th minute through a Xavier Bertoncello strike before their opponents came from behind to claim all three points.

The visitors have dropped down to the bottom of the pile with just three points from a possible 15 and will be desperate to add to that tally on Saturday.

The Black Knights have collected three wins and two draws in their five league games this term and will be looking to extend their unbeaten streak on Saturday. They are clear favorites heading into the weekend clash and should receive an additional boost from their home advantage.

The Jets, meanwhile, have lost their last three games on the bounce, conceding nine goals in that period. They have failed to win any of their last five away league games stretching back to last season and could lose this one.
