Tranmere Rovers, Recent FormThe Tranmere Rovers squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-0 away defeat against Bradford City, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed.
Nigel Adkins will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 6 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. Of the 18 games they have played at home this season, they have scored in 18 of them, but they've conceded at least one goal in 33 of their 41 games both home and away.
On an individual basis, Rob Apter will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Tranmere Rovers' last 6 league games.
Colchester United, Recent FormColchester United will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-1 home win against Newport County.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 7, and leading to valuable points being 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 34 of their 38 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, Bradley Ihionvien will be looking to cause Tranmere Rovers some problems having scored 2 goals in Colchester United's last 6 away games in the league.
It was not a positive ending for Tranmere Rovers last time they met Colchester United in the league, with the game ending in a 2-0 defeat.
Tranmere have managed to keep a clean sheet against The U's in each of their previous 3 meetings at Prenton Park.
In the league, Tranmere has a good track record when they host Colchester, getting the better of them in their last 2 home games.
With no real injury worries, Tranmere manager Nigel Adkins will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Colchester manager Danny Cowley has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
