Buoyed by a 4-2 win over Newport County, Walsall will be looking to keep on climbing the standings when they take on Colchester United on Matchday 16. The Saddlers are leading the chase for automatic promotion, but they need to keep on making progress if they are to turn the dream into reality. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Ryan Finnigan, who scored a brace at the weekend, while Irish defender Evan Weir will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The U’s, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle of the table with 18 points on their account. Given Colchester’s under-par performance in a 2-0 loss to Bromley, we predict that the promotion-chasing hosts will pick up all three points from Saturday’s encounter. Both Adrian Akande and Ben Perry are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team.
This League 2 match will be played on Saturday 15 November 2025 at 15:00.
