Crewe Alexandra will be looking to return to winning ways when they travel to Colchester for their next League Two match. The two sides are on opposite ends in the league standings, with Colchester in 17th spot while Crewe are fourth. Let’s have a look at the prediction here.
Last season Colchester missed a promotion playoff place by just three points. They will rightly feel they can contest for a higher finish this time. Their start to the season, however, hasn’t reflected much of that.
The U’s have managed just one win from their opening six league matches. They are coming off a 2-1 win against Wycombe in the EFL Trophy, an improvement from the three winless outings earlier.
Two straight losses in the league have brought Crewe Alexandra back to reality after their fast start that saw them win four matches on the bounce. These latest results have thrown Crewe to two points behind league leaders Gillingham.
With the top team facing a tough outing against Bromley this weekend, one of the teams above Crewe is sure to drop points. Crewe will be looking to take advantage of that with a win here.
Five victories in the last eight matches have the visitors on a confident footing coming into this game. The latest of them was a 7-1 triumph over Chesterfield in the EFL Trophy.
