Warren Moon's side have been the most compact team in the league, with their games typically being low-scoring affairs. Newcastle Jets have not been prolific in front of goal either, although their defense has been less stringent than their visitors.
Although one side could nick a win, we are backing the spoils to be shared in a low-scoring stalemate.
