Reigning champions Sydney FC host the Australian A-League's new boys Macarthur on Sunday morning.

Both sides will be looking to bounce back from a disappointing defeat last time out, with Steve Corica's men falling to Melbourne City and the visitors losing to Western United.

We say: Sydney FC 2-1 Macarthur

Newcastle Jets vs. Wellington (Sunday, 7.10am)

Two teams in contrasting form come head-to-head on Sunday morning as Newcastle Jets host Wellington Phoenix in the Australian A-League.

Craig Deans's men saw off Melbourne Victory 1-0 last time out, while the visitors fell to a 2-0 defeat at the hands of the same opposition.

We say: Newcastle Jets 2-1 Wellington Phoenix

These are two teams in contrasting form, and we expect the result to reflect their recent performances. The Phoenix will be desperate for a positive display, but we fancy the hosts to get the job done and secure all three points.
