Calculations are made based on 20-game form, historical head-to-head (H2H) stats and the view of the betting market, and you can get it at top odds of 1.25.

Goal Statistics

Colchester United have been reliable in attack of late, finding the net in 6 consecutive League Two games. Their PG of 1.5 against Fleetwood Town on Saturday suggests that run is likely to continue.

Colchester United's defensive record is very strong, Danny Cowley's men having conceded 1 or less in 12 consecutive League Two outings. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.0 for Fleetwood Town makes sense in this context.
