Halifax Town vs Southend United: Top Free Betting Tips

Halifax were supposed to be one of the main contenders in the league but the team is yet to win a game and even score a goal. Perhaps Southend are a suitable opponent. Here are our predictions.

Both Teams To Score – Yes

We have two teams that had terrible starts to their seasons in the National League. Halifax did not score a single goal in their first two games while Southend managed to score one in the last game. Overall, both teams need to improve and this is their chance to do so. Most of the games between them in recent years had a lot of goals and the previous time they played at Halifax, the game ended in a 3:1 win for the home team.

Double Chance – Draw or Southend

Halifax should generally be the much better team and we expect them to improve at some point. However, we expect a positive result for Southend in this game. The last time, they played against Solihull Moors on the road – easily one of the teams in the best current form. Still, Southend had an incredible match and definitely looked stronger throughout the entire match. We think that they have a better chance in this fixture than the odds suggest.

Total Goals – Over 2.5

Southend obviously do not have a great defense, so we already mentioned that we expect Halifax to score at least once in this fixture. However, we expect even more from Southend. Solihull Moors have one of the best defenses in the league and Southend almost destroyed them. We think that they have a great opportunity to score multiple goals in this fixture.

Halifax Town vs Southend United: Form, Recent Games, and News

Halifax Preview

Halifax were one of the top teams in the previous season and for some time were even the best in the league. The team has always been impressing with one specific part of their game – the defense. Last year, they had the absolute best defense in the league and conceded just 35 goals in 44 games. The new season definitely did not start in a good way and it is already time for them to improve.

Southend Preview

Southend are a curious team that usually resides around the middle of the table. This is where we expect to see them this season too but they seem to have improved a lot. Last year, they finished in 13th place and had one of the weakest attacks in the entire league. They definitely seem a lot better offensively although it is still early to say for sure.
