Sutherland Sharks welcome Blacktown City FC on Saturday, Jun 13 at 9:30 AM in a NPL New South Wales fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Sutherland Sharks come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 2L). Blacktown City FC travel drawing too many games (3D in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Despite playing at home, Sutherland Sharks face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Blacktown City FC have won 8 of 10 encounters. Their last encounter ended in Blacktown City FC won 2–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Sutherland Sharks a slight edge, but Blacktown City FC are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
