Colchester know what's at stake, and so do Southampton.
Colchester take on Southampton 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. Colchester will lean on whoever's hot in front of goal, while Southampton 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. Colchester average 1.7 goals per game and Southampton manage 2.2. Combined that's just 3.9. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game.
Colchester do it the hard way: only 1.7 a game up top, but a mean 0.7 conceded. They're a tough nut to crack: they soak up pressure and hit you on the break. Southampton have goals in them (2.2 per game) but their record at the back (1.1 conceded) leaves them open. This could be end-to-end.
