Southend United
- Southend United have a mixed run of form, with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in their last 5 National League matches, but have only won 1 of their last 4 National League away games, despite hammering Morecambe FC 5-1 at home last time out.
- The Shrimpers are 8th in the table after 29 games, having picked up 49 points.
Brackley Town
- Brackley Town sit 14th in the National League table, after taking 36 points from their opening 30 matches, and look set to achieve a secure mid-table finish after their recent promotion.
- The Cows, under interim leadership following the recent departure of Gavin Cowan, are solid and can be stubborn to break down, particularly when sitting behind the ball.
- The hosts have won 6, drawn 4 and lost 5 of their 15 home league games this term, conceding a mere 15 goals, but they’ve also drawn their last 3 at home, and will have to improve on their goal-scoring to see off the in-form Shrimpers on Saturday.
Key Players
