Accrington Stanley vs Colchester Predictions

Stanley can claim the spoils

Colchester are weak favourites and have failed to win their last three League Two games as market leaders so take Accrington to land an upset on Saturday.

They are eight places above Accrington in the table, but both sides have struggled for wins so far. The hosts sit bottom with no victories after six games, while Colchester are 16th with one win.

The hosts will be encouraged by their recent record in this fixture, having lost just one of the last eight League Two head-to-heads with Colchester.

Colchester’s struggles at the back are a concern, with the visitors having failed to keep a clean sheet in eight of their last ten League Two games. It is now four games since they last recorded a shutout.

Accrington may be able to edge out Colchester in a closely-fought game, with a 2-1 home win the correct-score pick. Accrington won the last League Two meeting between the teams 2-0, but both teams scored in five of the previous seven encounters.
