NPL NSW Standings & Stats

The NPL NSW 2026 season is Australia’s premier state‑level football competition, contested by 16 teams from New South Wales. Entering the final phase of the campaign, Marconi Stallions sit top of the standings with 49 points after 21 matches, closely pursued by APIA Leichhardt Tigers.

NPL NSW Table

As of matchday 22, only the top seven positions are available in the current dataset. Marconi Stallions (49 pts) occupy first place, one point ahead of APIA Leichhardt Tigers (48 pts) who have played one game more. Sydney United hold third with 44 points from 21 outings, keeping alive an outside chance of the championship. Sutherland Sharks and Rockdale Ilinden City Suns share 35 points each, while Sydney FC U23 (34 pts) and Wollongong Wolves (31 pts) complete the upper half of the table. With several fixtures still to be played, the battle for the minor premiership – and a potential top‑spot finish – remains tight among the leading trio.

Favorites & Title Chances

Based on current standings, form and remaining matchdays, the title probabilities for the main contenders are estimated as follows:

• Marconi Stallions – 55%: The leaders boast 15 wins, only two defeats and a game in hand over APIA. Their goal difference (+26) is the league’s best, and they have momentum after a 2‑0 win against St George Saints.
• APIA Leichhardt Tigers – 35%: With 15 wins and 48 points, APIA have the most potent attack (45 goals scored) and remain just one point behind. However, having played 22 games, they no longer have a cushion of extra matches.
• Sydney United – 10%: Five points adrift of the top with 21 games played, Sydney United would need both above them to slip up repeatedly. Their solid defensive record (17 conceded) keeps them in the conversation, but the gap looks challenging.

These percentages reflect the points gap, matches played and recent form captured in the JSON data; they are not gambling odds but a probability assessment based on the available league statistics.

Season Stats

The 2026 NPL NSW campaign has seen an average of 2.74 goals per match across 178 completed fixtures.
