Sutton United vs Colchester Predictions

• The hosts are conceding less than a goal per home game so far this season.
• Sutton United haven’t seen a single draw on home soil during this campaign.
• The visitors are scoring just 0.6 goals per away game and have won just two of their 10 road matches.

Sutton’s exceptional home form

The hosts have been exceptional during their first season in the English Football League, after accumulating 36 points from their 22 games this season. The points haul sees them come into this fixture occupying fourth position – two points off of the automatic promotion places. Their home form has been equally impressive, as Matt Gray’s men have won seven of their 10 league games at Gander Green Lane this season.

In stark contrast, Colchester United’s season has been spent battling the prospect of relegation. Their confidence will have taken a severe hammering after achieving just a solitary win in across their previous five league matches. It doesn’t help that Colchester United haven’t played since December 11th due to COVID-19 related postponements. They’ve also found goals hard to come by, in fact, they haven’t scored in their last two away games and only two sides are scoring fewer goals per game on average than Colchester United.

Hosts to secure victory

The hosts are in fantastic form and welcome a side who’ve been out of action for a couple of weeks. The visitors are likely to struggle against an energetic Sutton United outfit and we think the hosts will come away with the victory here.
