Prediction: 2-1
MK Dons
Colchester United will look to record their first league win of the season when they take on MK Dons in the League Two round 2. The U’s quickly bounced back from a 4-2 loss to AFC Wimbledon, with the team beating Reading on penalties in their EFL Cup opener, but they do not want to stop now. A man to watch in the home side will be Tom Hopper, who found the net in the midweek triumph, while there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team.
The Dons, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 5-0 defeat to Watford, which is probably the main reason why we are going to place our bets on Colchester. As for the visiting side, both Alex Gilbey and Stephen Wearne should be recalled to the starting XI after the duo came off the bench in the EFL Cup loss.
