Team Form

Casuarina come into this match with a poor run of form, having lost three of their last five matches (L, L, D, W, L). Their most recent outing was a 4-2 defeat at Mindil Aces on Sep 6. Before that, they lost 5-2 to Port Darwin, drew 2-2 at home to Palmerston Rovers, won 3-2 at Darwin Hearts, and lost 3-2 at home to Garuda United. With just 4 points from the last 15 available, confidence is low.

Since then, they suffered a heavy 6-0 home loss to Azzuri United FC. Other recent results include a 4-2 defeat to Mindil Aces, a 2-1 loss at Palmerston Rovers, and a 2-0 home loss to Hellenic Athletic. Despite the poor overall form, their head-to-head dominance over Casuarina stands out.

Based on the available odds, recent form, head-to-head record, and league positions, we calculate the following win probabilities for this match:

• Casuarina win: 22%
• Draw: 28%
• Port Darwin win: 50%

The bookmakers' implied probabilities (after removing the margin) gave Casuarina around 28%, the draw 31%, and Port Darwin 41%.
