We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Sorrento form and stats
Sorrento's results here at Percy Doyle Reserve A in the Npl Western Australia have been very modest with 2 victories, 0 draws and 6 defeats.
Sorrento are returning here after visiting Perth RedStar and winning with a 2-1 scoreline.
Before that match, a defeat in the away fixture against Inglewood United in the Western Australia FFA Cup Preliminary. The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Sorrento matches with similar probabilities have ended with 5 wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats (from 7 games).
Take note: 9 of the latest 10 league matches from this football club have seen goals scored by both teams.
The Sorrento fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 15 goals in 8 league matches.

Cockburn City form and stats
The visitors are W3-D2-L3 on the road this term. That's in the Npl Western Australia.
Impressive finishing secured the home win 1-0 against Perth in their previous game. That win felt good as this team had gone four league matches without winning.
The match earlier was the Western Australia FFA Cup Preliminary-battle against Floreat Athena, a home defeat (1-2). As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Cockburn City playing away, we found 10 games. Results were 2 away wins, 4 draws and 4 home wins.
Cockburn City are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 13 times in 8 away games so far. The Cockburn City manager Jeličić has some worries about the defense as 19 goals have been conceded in these travels.
Head 2 Head
The squads have met each other already this season, with the result Cockburn City - Sorrento 0-3 written in the official records. Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: seven - two - one (Sorrento wins - draws - Cockburn City wins). As for goals, nine matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.
