Southend United form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Southend United's two home games in the National League so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Roots Hall Stadium.

The Southend United crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 2-3 to Hartlepool United here at Roots Hall Stadium.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Dorking Wanderers (1-2).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Southend United have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 11 games) they have won 6 times, drawn 2 and lost 3.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Southend as they are travelling to their away game against Bromley in the National League. That match is three days after this one.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Southend United at home in the league. 6 on target and 3 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Eastleigh form and stats

Still no away game victory in the National League for Eastleigh with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

Eastleigh are travelling again after losing away to Rochdale in their previous match (0-2). That loss was their first after three consecutive league games winning points.

Preceding that match was the 3-3 draw at home vs Barnet.

Eastleigh are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 3 draws and 9 defeats. From a total of 15 matches.

A new game in only three days for Eastleigh, the National League home match versus Aldershot Town. Busy days.

Eastleigh have the goal stats of 1-3 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Head to head numbers (for the last four meetings): Southend United won one game, one match ended with a draw and Eastleigh managed two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: two / two.
