View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
BTTS - Yes has moderately strong support, as Burton has seen this outcome in 67% of their matches this season and in as many as 80% of their last five fixtures. The hosts have averaged 1.8 goals scored and 1.8 conceded across their last five matches, while Mansfield have scored 1.2 goals and allowed opponents 2.0 per game. Mansfield have failed to keep a clean sheet in every match, and their average of 2.67 goals conceded away from home strongly favors a Burton goal. The risk to the selection is Mansfield’s poor away scoring record: they average just 0.33 goals per game on the road and have failed to score in 67% of such matches. Nevertheless, the visitors’ recent xG of 1.31, combined with Burton’s 1.61 xG conceded, suggests a realistic chance that the away side will overcome this weakness.
