Only a win will satisfy the Cheltenham Town supporters in this Jonny-Rocks Stadium clash with Southend United, having a healthy lead on the opposition in the League Two table.
- Southend United have the fewest scored goals (21) in League Two
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Cheltenham Town form and stats
When playing at home in the League Two, Cheltenham Town have managed 6 wins, 4 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 14 games.
Defensively the home team are doing well, with their goalkeeper Joshua Griffiths not having conceded a league goal in 219 minutes.
Happy days for Cheltenham in their previous game, a League Two match away at Scunthorpe United (placed 19th) that ended with a 2-0 victory. In the preceding match a 1-0 victory visiting Cambridge United.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Port Vale are coming to town in four days.
The Cheltenham Town fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 20 in 14 matches. 15 goals have been conceded.
Southend United form and stats
There's been little loot from Southend United's travels as they have only collected 14 points from 15 away games in the League Two. Southend United, who have the fewest scored goals (21) in League Two, only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 5 draws.
Southend's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Salford City that finished 0-0. Preceding that game was the away victory against Forest Green Rovers with the score of 3-1.
The schedule is very tough for Southend now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League Two game at Oldham Athletic is waiting in only four days.
The attacking power of Southend when travelling is not overwhelming with 8 goals scored from 15 league matches away. It's worth mentioning that 4 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Southend have conceded 23 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
