Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Swindon Town will be aiming to put an end to their three-game winless run in the League Two when they host Colchester United at their County Ground. The Robins are determined to climb to the playoffs berth, and we are positive that they will fight tooth and nail against the U’s. Talented attacker Tyrece Simpson should keep his place in the starting XI after finding the net in each of the previous two league fixtures.
Colchester United, on the other hand, aim to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Crawley Town. The U’s have been totally unpredictable in recent weeks, and seeing that Swindon Town’s displays are much better than the results, we predict that the visitors will return home empty-handed. The good news for the visiting team is that experienced defender Luke Chambers returns from suspension.

Founded in 1937, Colchester United are a professional football club that compete in the League Two, the English fourth tier. The U’s welcome their rivals at Colchester Community Stadium, the venue which has the capacity of 10,105 people.
Colchester United are well known for their blue kit, but white is the dominant colour of their away kit. The U’s have an official fans association known as the CUSA. Colchester supporters consider Wycombe Wanderers the club’s fiercest rivals, but the rivalries with Southend United and Ipswich Town are big as well. Colchester United did well to win the FA Trophy in the 1991/92 season, with the team clinching the Essex Senior Cup trophy in the 2009/10 season.
In December 1961 the U’s recorded their biggest win, with the team rolling over Bradford City 9-1 in the Fourth Division. Colchester United repeated the success 44 years later as they hammered Leamington 9-1 in the FA Cup round 1.
