With their 18 point advantage in the league table, Burton Albion fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Southend United.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the FA Cup. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Oldham Athletic.

Burton Albion form and stats

When playing at home in the League One, Burton Albion have managed 2 wins, 2 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 6 games.

Happy days for Burton Albion in their previous game, a FA Cup match away at Oldham Athletic that ended with a 1-0 victory. In the game before, an away victory in the League One match versus Sunderland with a 2-1 scoreline.

Burton Albion are believed to win this game, given a winning chance of about 70% by the bookmakers. We have checked our records for their performance in similar circumstances and found two matches and the win/draw/lost stats: W1-D0-L1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Burton Albion as they have a new game in only four days, a League One match thankfully also at home. Lincoln City are visiting.

Burton Albion have scored 3 goals here in 6 league matches, a depressing statistic. Burton Albion have showed great defending skills in these home games, allowing the opposition to score only 2 goals.

Southend United form and stats

Southend United, who have the most conceded goals (52) in League One, have only collected 4 points from their away games in the League One, after 1-1-7 (9 played). With the Southend United losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Southend United have lost on their last two travels.

The manager S. Campbell was unhappy after their last game, a League One match played at their home ground Roots Hall Stadium. Southend United suffered a 0-4 loss to Oxford United (placed 6th). That result followed a home victory 3-1 versus AFC Wimbledon in the EFL Trophy.

Southend United lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Southend United played away with similar odds. This revealed one game. The visitors overcame the odds to win 0 times, 0 were draws and the home team won as expected 1 time.

The schedule is very tough for Southend United now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League One game at Bristol Rovers is waiting in only four days.

Southend United are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 10 away goals from 9 games (in the league). For Southend United, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings between the teams: Burton Albion won 4, Southend United won 5 and 1 draw. 4 games with over 2,5 goals, 6 matches with two goals or less.
