Prediction: 2-1
Colchester
Blundell Park will host Saturday’s football game between Grimsby Town and Colchester United, the two teams who are almost level on points in the League Two standings. The Black and Whites quickly bounced back from a massive 5-0 loss to Swindon, with the team beating Crewe 3-0 in the league, while eliminating Luton Town in the FA Cup last 32. Loanee McAtee is back to contention after he was ineligible to face the Hatters, with both O’Neill and Lloyd being available for selection this time out as well.
The visiting side, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Barrow. Colchester aim to extend their unbeaten run to four games, but seeing that Grimsby look sharp in front of goal, home win should be considered. Scotland forward Jack Hamilton should miss out with injury, speaking of the visiting side.

Highlighted Team (Colchester):
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.
