Doncaster Rovers vs Colchester United Predictions & Betting Tips, Match Preview

Hopes will have been high in Doncaster for an immediate return to League One after a summer of good recruitment and the knowledge that they are one of the bigger names in the division. Darren Ferguson’s men had to cope with a lengthy injury list but as those worries have gradually eased they have started to string some results together and they currently sit in second place. With the best home record in the division Rovers fans are enjoying seeing their side at the moment, especially considering they have also scored the most goals out of anyone in League Two so far this year.

Visiting the Keepmoat is Colchester United who, like their hosts, will have been looking for an immediate return to League One. Their season has been a bit more troubled however and they currently find themselves down in 13th position. A few weeks ago we spoke of a promising run of form for United but their lack of goals in recent weeks has seen them slip away from the play-off places. With just three goals in their last five matches, which includes a 0-0 draw with bottom placed Newport, they look a far cry from a side that can challenge for the play-off spots at the moment.

All signs then point to a home win, Doncaster are the form side and they have been excellent in front of their home fans. They also enjoy the best of the head to head record, so we can see no reason to put our money anywhere else and with odds of 4/6 available with bet365 it still represents a decent investment.
