Colchester United, Recent FormColchester United will have been reasonably pleased with their 1-1 draw against Stevenage, not least because of the valuable point gained.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 4 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 7 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. Consistency in front of goal has been a problem for them at home recently, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
There will be mixed feelings from The U's, while they've been undefeated in their last 4 league games, they've drawn their last 4.
Crewe Alexandra, Recent FormLast time out, Crewe Alexandra recorded an impressive 3-0 home win against Barrow.
Lee Bell will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 10 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. After failing to get on the scoresheet in 9 away games out of 19 this season, he will be looking for a bit more consistency from his forwards.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win. They've had an unusually high number of draws when playing away from home this season, with 9 draws in 19 away league games.
Daniel Agyei will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Crewe Alexandra.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Crewe Alexandra that came out on top with a 1-0 win.
The Railwaymen defence has struggled at JobServe Community Stadium, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 7 visits. In their last 2 league meetings with The Railwaymen, Colchester have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal. We have seen plenty of goals from The U's when they play at home against Crewe. In their last 3 league matches they have scored a total of 13 goals, which is an average of 4.33 goals per game.
In the league, Colchester has a good track record when they host Crewe, getting the better of them in their last 3 home games.
With no real injury worries, Colchester manager Ben Garner will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Crewe manager Lee Bell has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
