Struggling Sutherland Sharks will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Sydney Olympic in the upcoming league round. It’s 11th vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

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!

One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on artificial turf and that the visiting Sydney Olympic have a different surface at their stadium (grass). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on artificial turf is 1-0-2 (win-draw-loss) from three matches. This is a local derby, usually meaning added tension and importance.

Sutherland Sharks form and stats

With 0 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats from their home games, Sutherland Sharks are certainly not brimming with confidence. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in ten attempts. With seven home games in a row without a win, the Sutherland Sharks fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Hakoah Sydney City game long ago, can be stopped today.

The points were shared in Sutherland Sharks's previous game, also at home. Visiting Rockdale City Suns travelled back with a point after a 1-1 scoreline. Before that, Sutherland Sharks drew at home versus Sydney II.

The Sutherland Sharks fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium, the tally being 7 in 7 matches. Sutherland Sharks's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 10 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
