It's been a tough season in Australia, and things have taken a turn for the worse. A few weeks ago, FC MacArthur was at the top of the table, but after 3 consecutive losses, they have now dropped to 5th place.
The most worrying thing about this 3-game losing streak is that they have conceded 3 goals in each game. I think Stefan Stefanovski will have to work a little bit more on the training ground to make the team's defense hard to break down again.
Up front, Chemin has had a great career with France's top club, and FC MacArthur's top scorer has been in good form, scoring 3 goals in his last 6 matches. As for Davila, he is in charge of the central midfield, supplying the strikers and leading a pair of players to participate in the attack. With this in mind, attacking right winger Mafemina has become an important figure in FC MacArthur's tactical deployment, as he is in a dangerous position on the wing.
My old boss Newcastle Jets have improved their performance recently, with 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in their last 4 matches.
Bouchakia scored twice in his last league game, helping his team to beat Western Union 2-0, which was a very encouraging performance. Although his performance was mediocre at the beginning of the season, he has scored 3 goals in the last 3 matches, so his confidence should be high now, and I expect his speed can be useful in counter-attacks.
In addition, top scorer Stendy Lupus is suspended for this game, which will have a serious impact on Newcastle Jets, so I'm interested to see if young scorer Archie Gwynn will be able to start for the first time this season. Although he has only scored 1 league goal, I believe he has some potential.
