Colchester will face Accrington in a curious fixture from the 34th round in League Two. Here are our predictions.
Contents
Both Teams To Score Prediction: Yes
While we feel that there is a slight chance for a complicated game and a low scoreline, we believe that there is good value in the BTTS market. Colchester have not had a great season overall but they had a few good performances lately and scored goals in four of their last five fixtures. Accrington should have the advantage on paper but they have had serious problems defensively on the road. They conceded goals in eight of their last ten games away from home but also scored at least once in nine out of ten.
Match Result Prediction: Draw
Accrington have a great record against Colchester from the last few years and it was shocking to see them lose earlier this season. We do not believe that Colchester are good enough yet to beat them here and Accrington will definitely score in this game. Almost every single game between the two teams has been very close in recent years but we rarely saw any tied matches. Overall, this one is difficult to predict and we recommend skipping this market as any pick would be risky.
Correct Score Prediction: 1-1 Draw
Based on the importance of this match, Colchester may try to minimize the risky plays and we could see a low scoreline. We may also see Accrington score multiple goals which happens from time to time at the most unexpected times. What we feel most certain about is the exchange of at least a goal per team and this is why we pick the 1-1 scoreline. Picking anything higher is a risk ahead of this match. On paper, when we compare the Colchester vs Accrington line ups, the visitors should have a slight advantage, which further increases the chances for a draw.
