Colchester vs Barrow preview: An exciting fight for survival
Colchester
With twenty two points from twenty two games, Colchester is just one spot above the relegation zone at the moment, and three points ahead of the first team in it. In the last six games, Colchester has one win, two draws, and three losses, but what's worrying is that they lost three games in a row now. Obviously, the team will have to improve in form if they want to stay in League Two.
Barrow
While Barrow is ahead of their upcoming opponent in the standings, they are only ahead by one point. So, Barrow is in a similar position as Colchester right now and they will have to turn their form around if they want to stay safe. In the last six games, the team has one win, one draw, and four losses, which is why they are in this position.
