Former Western Wanderers youth prospect Blacktown should have the upper hand in this game Campbell has been an inspired acquisition from City but both sides have their weaknesses so it could go coach Mark Crittenden and looks like the club’s next either way. big star if recent performances are anything to go by. Crittenden will surely lean on the young defender once again this week as they face off against the skilful and pacy attack on Manly United. One issue for City has been the lack of goals and Crittenden hopes both Joey Gibbs and Leroy Jennings can find their way to goal come Sunday. Manly United snatched a narrow 1-0 at home last week and come into this game in solid form with three wins from their past five matches. However, consistency has been Manly’s biggest weakness this season with the Paul Dee coached side struggling to deliver back to back performances.

Sutherland Sharks 2- Blacktown City 1 at Seymour Shaw Park Sutherland Sharks has knocked Blacktown City’s premiership hopes with a shock 2-1 win at Seymour Shaw on Saturday. It was only the Sharks fourth win of the season but extends their current unbeaten run to eight games. Raul Romero scored from the penalty spot to give Sutherland the perfect start before Jordan Morfitis doubled their advantage to 2-0 with only 11 minutes left on the clock. Lachlan Campbell netted late for Blacktown City to set up a nervous close to the match but it wasn’t enough for the visitors as the Sharks hung on for a confidence boosting win.

Manly United 1 – Marconi Stallions 0 at Cromer Park A Charles Mendy strike in first-half stoppage time proved decisive as Manly United edged out Marconi Stallions 1-0 at Cromer Park on Sunday afternoon. In a fiery affair, the visitors will be left scratching their heads as to how they emerged empty-handed following the raft of opportunities they forged throughout the ninety. Despite James Andrew and last week’s hat-trick hero Mitch Mallia giving Manly some early defensive headaches, the solitary goal of the match arrived courtesy of a former Stallion Charles Mendy deep into first-half added time. A tense second stanza ultimately saw the scoresheet remain as it were, allowing for a courageous Manly performance to earn them a valuable three points in the race for the top 5.
