The League Two season is still fresh and sports bettors should be cautious. This meeting between Southend United and Exeter City promises to be an interesting one.

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.

Southend United form and stats

Southend United have less points than they have played home games in the League Two so far. Their two previous attempts here have produced 0 points. The Southend United manager M. Molesley might feel some added pressure to get something from this game after two straight home defeats.

The Southend United fans got no joy from their last match, a EFL Trophy game also here at Roots Hall Stadium: A 0-3 defeat against Portsmouth. Preceding that game was the away draw at Crawley Town that finished 1-1.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Southend United at home in the league. 1 on target and 6 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Exeter City form and stats

Four points from two away games for Exeter City, meaning one draw and one victory in the League Two so far.

Two travels in a row for Exeter, whose manager M. Taylor could celebrate last time after the EFL Trophy win against Swindon Town. That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Cambridge United in the League Two.

A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Exeter, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?

Exeter City have the goal stats of 4-3 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last eight meetings between these two teams are: three wins for Southend, two draws and three wins for Exeter City. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: five games.
