Next up is a match prediction for an early kick off in League Two as two south east rivals clash. In-form Colchester United welcome Gillingham to the Jobserve Community Stadium in a battle between two teams on the fringes of the promotion race with the U's and Gills still very much in the thick of the battle for promotion and playoff spots.
Those ambitions are shown clearly in the current league table. Despite their recent good form Colchester lie tenth in the table with 27 points from 18 games. Gillingham lie eighth with 28 points from 18 games. However a win for either of these teams in this match could move them right into the playoff positions in League Two.
Colchester come into this game in great form winning all of their last four. A 2-0 win over Fulham U21s in the Football League Trophy was followed by two superb away wins, 2-0 at Walsall and then a 3-1 win away to Notts County. Last weekend they defeated Cheltenham Town 2-0 to continue that great run of form.
Gillingham come into this game without a win in four. They were beaten 3-0 at home by Wycombe Wanderers in the Football League Trophy but then followed that with three draws in the league. A 2-2 draw with Crawley Town at home was followed by another home draw, this time 1-1 with Barnet and last weekend they earned a 3-3 draw at Shrewsbury Town.
