Sutton Utd come into this one in mixed form. They have won one of their last five, drawn three and lost one, so they are hard to beat but not exactly flying. Southend, on the other hand, look sharper - they have won three of their last five, including some high-scoring away wins, and only lost once in that stretch. So Southend are the team in better shape right now.

When these two meet, goals tend to show up. Two of their last four meetings finished with three goals or more, and Southend have won two of the last four with one draw. Overall this looks fairly open rather than a tight, cagey game, and given Southend's stronger recent run, they look the more likely side to come out on top.
