Salford City, Recent FormSalford City will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with Mansfield Town in which they suffered a 5-1 away defeat.
Whilst manager Karl Robinson will be pleased with his team's performance in front of goal, having scored 15 goals in their last 6 games, he will want to tighten up his defence if they are to pick up more points, with 14 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season, they have conceded at least one goal in 15 of their 16 games at Peninsula Stadium.
They have had a good run of form recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 3 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Matt Smith will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 6 goals in Salford City's last 6 league games.
Colchester United, Recent FormColchester United were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 1-1 draw against Sutton United.
When it comes to attacking power Danny Cowley will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 7 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 7 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 29 of their 33 games.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.
On an individual basis, Samson Tovide will be looking to cause Salford City some problems having scored 2 goals in Colchester United's last 6 away games in the league.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Salford City who ended up empty-handed, losing 2-1 to Colchester United.
The U's will be looking to extend their current run of 3 clean sheets at Peninsula Stadium when they visit Salford. In each of the previous 4 matches against The U's, Salford have let in at least one goal.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams at Peninsula Stadium, Colchester has taken all 3 points and has not lost away to Salford in 4 games.
With no real injury worries, Salford manager Karl Robinson will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Colchester manager Danny Cowley has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
