Prediction: 1-1
Colchester
Accrington will look to put an end to their six-game winless run in all competitions when they face Colchester United on Matchday 8. The Accy Stanley are stuck in the relegation zone with only three points on their account, but a win over Colchester should see them move away from the bottom two. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the home team, all Caton, Brown, and Sinclair are in line for recalls to the starting XI.
The U’s, on the other hand, are eager to put an end to their four-match winless run in League Two. As both Colchester and Accrington are expected to adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday’s encounter, there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Tom Flanagan is rated doubtful for the visiting team after picking up a knock in a 1-1 draw with Crewe, with Kyreece Lisbie pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Accrington):
Founded back in 1891 and reformed in 1968, Accrington Stanley are an English football club that compete in the League One. The original team competed in the Football League from 1921 to 1962, spending the last four seasons in Lancashire Combination.
