My interpretation is the other way around.
Based on the definition of each alliance's CASTLE and SECRET PASSAGE (which are both on the same side of the field), I am assuming that the blue alliance's OUTER WORKS is on the same side of the field as the blue alliance's CASTLE and SECRET PASSAGE.
This means the rule 5.5.10:

Also, OUTER WORKS DEFENSE positions 2 through 5 are selected by the opposing ALLIANCE, i.e. the Red ALLIANCE selects the Blue ALLIANCE DEFENSES. This provides each ALLIANCE with a predictable set of DEFENSES on which to practice.

Would indicate that the red alliance picks the defenses that are placed leading into the blue alliance's COURTYARD, and thus the defenses that they are going to traverse.
If it were the other way around (you pick the defenses your opponents need to traverse), the last sentence in the quoted piece of 5.5.10 wouldn't make sense- you wouldn't necessarily get the same defenses that you practiced with.
