Back Both Teams to Score @ 1.60 in Newcastle Jets v Melbourne City

Newcastle Jets v Melbourne City
Friday 08:50 (BT Sport 1)

The Old Lady won her tussle with the Devil of Milan at Juventus Stadium last night. And we were right behind her, peeking out from beneath her coat tails, which means we're 3/3 for the week.

Next up, we're in Australia for the A-League game between Newcastle Jets and Melbourne City. The hosts are down eighth place, but they've found their shooting boots in recent weeks and, having hit the back of the net in 7/8 runnings of this fixture since 2011, we fancy them to make some trouble for third-placed Melbourne on Friday morning.

They've only kept one clean sheet there all season, but the Jets have struck twice in each of their last three appearances at McDonald Jones Stadium.

John van't Schip's visitors have conceded in each of their last six on the road. In fact, since the boss took charge in 2013/14, City have managed just seven clean sheets from 41 away games. They might have the firepower to escape Newcastle with all three points, but we certainly fancy their shaky defence to be breached once more.
