Exeter City form and stats

Exeter City have collected 9 points from their League One home games so far after 3-0-1.

No payout for Exeter City in their previous match, an away game at Shrewsbury Town that ended in defeat 2-3. Did Exeter City get overconfident in their match against Shrewsbury Town? We'll let you decide, but they did lose a 2-0 lead to end up with a 2-3 defeat. Heartbreak for Exeter in their last match as Shrewsbury Town's Dunkley scored the winning goal deep into overtime. Brown, a striker, was the best player for the side in that match, receiving a rating of 7.74 (out of 10). Brown hit the woodwork once, hit six key passes and dribled past the opponent 3 of 6 times.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Milton Keynes Dons.

From these home matches, Exeter City have conceded only 2 goals.

Burton Albion form and stats

0 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Burton Albion playing as the away team in the League One this season.

The manager Hasselbaink was unhappy after their last game, played at their home stadium Pirelli Stadium. Burton suffered a 0-2 loss to Portsmouth (placed 2nd).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Oxford United wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Burton Albion manager Hasselbaink as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Sheffield Wednesday.

There are big problems for the Burton defense as they have conceded 13 goals in 4 away games.

Head 2 Head

Burton Albion have put together a sequence of 5 consecutive matches without losing (3-2-0) when facing Exeter City.
