The latest Newspoll, released on Monday, showed the coalition leading 51 per cent to 49 per cent, on a two-party preferred basis, the same result as the previous poll.

The survey found the coalition also increased its primary vote by two points to 40 per cent, while Labor boosted its vote from 31 to 33 per cent.

Opposition Leader Peter Dutton's approval rating rose two points to 40 per cent, equal with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.

Disapproval of Mr Dutton's performance was 51 per cent, while dissatisfaction with the prime minister worsened by one point to 55 per cent, leaving Mr Dutton on minus 11 and Mr Albanese on minus 15.

In a head-to-head comparison, Mr Albanese remains the preferred prime minister with the support of 45 per cent, while Mr Dutton is at 41 per cent - a rise of four points for the opposition leader since the previous Newspoll.

Monash University politics lecturer Zareh Ghazarian said while the coalition was ahead in the polls, it would not be enough for the opposition to form government.

"At the moment, it's looking as though the coalition has consolidated its position as the force most likely to get a majority of the two-party preferred vote," he told AAP.

"It's probably not enough (for) where the coalition need to be to be within a majority.

"The major parties are attracting support, but none ... are in a strong position to win a majority of seats."
