Form, fitness, fine margins. Preston and Huddersfield meet in a fixture that could swing either way.
Preston take on Huddersfield 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. Preston will lean on whoever's hot in front of goal, while Huddersfield 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. Preston average 1.4 goals per game and Huddersfield manage 2.1. Combined that's just 3.6. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game.
Huddersfield have goals in them (2.1 per game) but their record at the back (1.9 conceded) leaves them open. This could be end-to-end. Neither defence inspires confidence. Both sides rarely keep clean sheets. Open, attacking football is on the cards.
