- Para Hills Knights are winless in their last 5 NPL South Australia matches.
- Campbelltown City are unbeaten in their last 3 matches (D2, W1).
Sides set to play to their strengths
Despite the bookmakers’ odds of 1.26, Campbelltown City are a good bet to take the win on Saturday when they travel to bottom-placed Para Hills Knights. The hosts are 6.99 to end their 4-match losing streak and the hosts are winless in their last 5 NPL South Australia games (D1, L4).
Campbelltown are unbeaten in their last 3 (D2, W1) and have played better footy across the last few weeks. The visitors are 8th in the NPL South Australia 2026 table with eight points from six games and are seven points better off than Para Hills.
Campbelltown’s 4-4 away draw against West Adelaide was a thrilling match and showed the attacking prowess of the Blue Devils, but also their fragility at the back. In contrast, Para Hills operate in a more pragmatic fashion, setting up a low, compact block and looking to hit on the counter. However, they’re yet to hit their stride this season, particularly in front of goal, so this should be a battle between possession and counter.
An away win looks likely
Campbelltown have scored 7 times in 3 away matches in the 2026 NPL South Australia campaign, which is an impressive 2.33 per game. Para Hills have mustered just 3 goals in 3 home games this term, and they lost their most recent match on home soil 1-3 against Adelaide City just 5 days ago.
The match result markets don’t hold any appeal here as the bookies have it spot on in terms of which way this one will go, but the Over 2.5 goals market at 1.23 is a definite pick-me-up. This price represents Campbelltown’s high scoring ability and the frailties of Para Hills, and we’re expecting the visitors to make the most of their chances in what should be a high-scoring affair.
Campbelltown’s width to break down the Knights’ low block
Para Hills are without a win in their last 2 home head-to-head meetings and we see that record stretching to 3 this weekend. Campbelltown are an attacking side that look to use their wide men to stretch the play and pin opponents in, while they press high up the field to try and force turnovers. Para Hills will look to remain compact and counter.
The only thing that may stop this becoming a goal-fest is if Para Hills sit back and defend deep, but as they have failed to win any of their 3 home games this campaign, we’re siding with Campbelltown to take the victory. The 2025 NPL South Australia clash between the sides ended in a 5-1 rout away from home for Campbelltown and we can see something similar happening on Saturday.
