A test of nerve as much as quality when Mansfield Town welcome Sheffield Utd.
A EFL Cup fixture between Mansfield Town and Sheffield Utd. Here's what the numbers and form tell us ahead of kick-off.
The lead strikers on both sides carry the narrative here. Mansfield Town will lean on whoever's hot in front of goal, while Sheffield Utd travel with the same brief: find a way past a back four that's been organised more often than not this season.
This doesn't look like a high-scoring one. Mansfield Town average 1.6 goals per game and Sheffield Utd manage 0.0. Combined that's just 1.6. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game.
Sheffield Utd prefer to keep things tight (0.0 conceded per game) and nick a goal on the break. Patience will be key for Mansfield Town against this setup.
