Form, fitness, fine margins. Salford City and Shrewsbury meet in a fixture that could swing either way.
Salford City take on Shrewsbury in the EFL Cup. Let's break down what our data says about this one.
The lead strikers on both sides carry the narrative here. Salford City will lean on whoever's hot in front of goal, while Shrewsbury 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. Salford City average 1.0 goals per game and Shrewsbury manage 0.8. Combined that's just 1.8. We make it only 51% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game. Whether both teams score is a genuine coin-flip, and we make it 45%.
