Newcastle Jets vs Shanghai Port Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 3 November 2026
🔊 The contrast in form and league standing is striking ahead of the clash between Newcastle Jets and Shanghai SIPG. The hosts have yet to earn a single point after three rounds and are already trailing far behind the playoff zone. In contrast, Shanghai SIPG have made a stronger start, sitting on the edge of the top eight and emerging as genuine contenders to extend their season. The key question is whether Shanghai SIPG’s attacking firepower can break down a Newcastle Jets defence that has been leaking goals.
Head-to-Head
The teams have never met in an official match before.

Winless this season
Newcastle Jets suffered a 0-3 defeat at home to Wellington Phoenix in their most recent A-League outing on 31 October 2026, despite dominating possession with 79% and outshooting their opponents 13 to 8.
Newcastle Jets are struggling both to pick up points and to keep things tight at the back. Over their last ten matches, they have managed just one win while suffering six defeats, with an average of 1.5 goals scored and 2.6 conceded per game - numbers that highlight the imbalance between attack and defence. This season, they are still searching for their first victory, having lost five times and drawn twice. Their home form is particularly concerning: in just one of their seven home fixtures have they managed to score more than once.

Away goal scorers
Shanghai SIPG’s most recent AFC Champions League fixture, a home clash with Gangwon on 27 October 2026, ended in a 2-3 defeat. While both sides registered 18 shots apiece, the visitors proved more clinical, hitting the target six times compared to Shanghai SIPG’s four.
Shanghai SIPG sit comfortably in the top eight after the opening rounds, drawing confidence from their consistent attacking displays. With seven wins and just one defeat in their last ten outings, the Chinese side continue to showcase their offensive strength. Averaging 2.5 goals per match while conceding a modest 1.2, they have established themselves as a formidable attacking force. Notably, Shanghai SIPG regularly score at least twice on the road, cementing their status as away-day favourites in front of goal.

Prediction for the 1st half
Shanghai SIPG have scored in the first half in each of their last four away matches. Back Shanghai SIPG to score in the first half at odds of 1.62.
Match Result Prediction
Newcastle Jets are winless in their last nine matches, while Shanghai SIPG have claimed victory in seven consecutive away games. Newcastle Jets have also suffered three defeats in their opening three fixtures this season. However, there’s a note of caution: the Chinese side have won just once in their last 11 AFC Champions League outings. Given this, instead of backing an outright away win, the recommended bet is Shanghai SIPG Double Chance (X2) at odds of 1.43.
Both Teams to Score Prediction
Newcastle Jets have both scored and conceded in eight of their last nine matches. The team have found the net in 15 of their last 16 games, while Shanghai SIPG have scored at least twice in seven of their last eight away fixtures. The recommended bet is both teams to score - yes at odds of 1.34.
High-Risk Bet
Shanghai SIPG have gone into halftime level in six of their last seven AFC Champions League fixtures. Notably, they've scored before the break in each of their last four away games - meaning Newcastle Jets would need to respond for a first-half draw to land. Since this draw trend applies solely to one competition, the prediction carries a bit more risk. Still, backing a draw at halftime at odds of 2.41 looks like a reasonable pick.
Safer Bet
Newcastle Jets have scored in 15 of their last 16 matches. Over their past ten home games, the team has averaged 1.4 goals per match, while Shanghai SIPG have conceded an average of 1.4 goals in their last ten away fixtures. Backing Newcastle Jets to score at odds of 1.12 looks like a solid pick.
