Exeter City vs Colchester United Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

We are backing both teams to score when Exeter and Colchester face off this weekend in League Two and this is available at 4/6 with bet365. For our correct score tip we just can’t separate the sides and we think they will play out an entertaining 2-2 draw, which is priced at 12/1 with the same site.

It would be easy to point to Exeter’s home form this season and make them big underdogs for this match, but dig a little deeper and you can see all is not quite as it seems. The Grecians may have only managed eight points from their 11 home games this season, but with seven of those points coming in their last three home games at St James Park it looks as though they have finally got their act together.

Both of these sides will go into this match full of confidence after each side managed to claim 20 points from their last eight games, a return which makes them the joint most in form sides in the division. Colchester are also in the middle of an impressive scoring run, they have now scored in six games in a row and boast the third best offensive record in the league.

The head to head between these sides also makes for some encouraging reading as five of the previous seven meetings has finished in both teams scoring. It’s also historically a high scoring fixture as those seven games have averaged over 3.5 goals per game, so a bet in the goals column looks to be a good alternative.
