Colchester vs Walsall Preview
Colchester United will be desperate to get back on track after suffering a 2-0 defeat to Northampton Town in their last League Two outing. The U's do not seem to be at their sharpest, having failed to win any of their last ten matches in all competitions, and their attacking output has been a major concern. They have scored just 0.75 goals per game at home, although their defensive record at the JobServe Community Stadium has been more encouraging, with only 0.75 conceded per outing. There are no fresh injury concerns for the hosts, while Jaden Williams could earn a place in the starting XI.
Walsall, meanwhile, are also looking to respond after a disappointing 4-2 loss to Salford. The Saddlers have been inconsistent lately, but they remain above Colchester in the table and have conceded an average of 1.50 goals per game overall. There are no fresh injury worries for the visitors either, with Lewis Simper pushing for a starting spot after scoring off the bench against Salford.
Given Colchester's ten-game winless run, we believe that there is big value in betting on Walsall or Draw, alongside Under 2.5 and Under 3.5 goals also appeals, with only 15% of the last 27 meetings producing more than three goals.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday, 31 October 2026 at 15:00 in Colchester Community Stadium, Colchester, England.
