Could there have been troops on Reserve orders not being counted?

In this case, no. There was only one unit present (as far as I can tell). The game often reports one figure for the number of opposing troops and the battle report gives a different figure. Supposedly I've completely wiped out a few units only to see them re-attack a few turns later.

Think disrupt troops not on display but can be killed.

Disrupted troops are counted as half for combat, but full for losses.

SAIEW

The casualties include the non-combat (support squads) losses which are not factored into the troops/guns/vehicles AV calculation at the beginning.
That and the comment about disabled elements only counting half.
