The key duel: Oldham's attack against Stoke City's back line.
Stoke City take on Oldham 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. Stoke City will lean on whoever's hot in front of goal, while Oldham 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. Stoke City average 0.7 goals per game and Oldham manage 1.7. Combined that's just 2.4. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game.
Neither defence inspires confidence. Both sides rarely keep clean sheets. Open, attacking football is on the cards.
