Newcastle Jets vs Wellington Phoenix prediction and best bet

Newcastle Jets vs Wellington Phoenix prediction for the A-League on Saturday, 31 October 2026: the model makes Newcastle Jets marginally ahead at 44%, with the draw at 25% and Wellington Phoenix at 31%.

Expected goals are 1.76 for Newcastle Jets and 1.45 for Wellington Phoenix, a total of 3.21, which puts over 2.5 goals at 62% and both teams to score at 65%.
