- Blacktown City FC head into Sunday's match on a three-game winning streak, most recently beating St George City 3-0 at home and winning 2-0 at Wollongong Wolves.
- Sydney FC NPL are on a two-match drawing streak after 0-0 draws with Manly United at home and St George FC away.
- The head-to-head between these two sides has been tight in recent times, with the last two meetings ending in draws, including a 2-2 stalemate.
Hosts have momentum to nick this one
Blacktown City FC are the slight favourites at 1.85 for Sunday's clash with Sydney FC NPL, who are at 3.5, while the draw is 3.55 in the outright market.
Blacktown City are 13th in the NPL New South Wales 2026 table with 28 points from 25 games, while visitors Sydney FC NPL are 8th with 33 points from the same number of games.
Blacktown's recent form has been impressive, winning three, drawing one and losing one in their last five. They are a front-foot team which likes to press, transition quickly and run in behind to break lines, and that style has served them well in recent weeks.
They welcome Sydney FC NPL to L.E. Konda Stadium on Sunday, where the visitors sit at the other end of the spectrum in terms of style of play. They like to build from the back, move the ball patiently and control the game with overloads through the thirds.
This clash of styles sets up a tasty chess match and Sydney FC NPL will look to slow Blacktown down while the home side will be looking to pinch the ball, counter and score. The value lies in goals for this one, as Both Teams to Score is 1.53 and Over 2.5 goals is 1.62.
Both teams are in decent scoring form
Both of these teams have been in good form in terms of scoring goals.
Blacktown have won three, drawn two and lost seven of their 12 home fixtures in the NPL New South Wales 2026 season, conceding 17 goals. Meanwhile, Sydney have won three, drawn three and lost six on their travels, conceding 17 goals.
The head-to-head record is tight, but Sydney have failed to win on their last trip to Blacktown City FC and the hosts have the momentum of a three-game streak under coach Mark Crittenden to edge a close one, but if the visitors can keep things locked down, the draw will still be very live.
