Colchester vs Swindon – Free Predictions and Betting Tips

Colchester are once again back among losing ways as the team were hit by a 2-1 loss at the hands of Wimbledon that came as a result of a sharp comeback in the second half. Swindon made it back-to-back away victories in the league after an impressive 2-1 success over Northampton.

Swindon to get the three points

Swindon have just managed back-to-back away victories over two teams who are in with a shout to get promoted next season. Colchester, meanwhile, are struggling at the bottom end of the table and very little has been going in their favour over the last few weeks apart from the win over Gillingham. Swindon could do the double over Colchester after the 1-0 win over this opponent back in October.

Total goals over 2.5

Colchester have had a defensive nightmare throughout the campaign with 31 goals conceded. As a result, three out of the last five matches involving the team has been able to witness more than 2.5 goals. Colchester’s offensive contribution might be low in many of the matches but their defence has been under par.

Both teams to score – no

There have not been a lot of sufficient opportunities for Colchester to score goals. In the last four matches, the team has scored from open play only on one occasion. Colchester are likely to struggle against a Swindon team who are chasing an automatic promotion spot.

Colchester vs Swindon: Form Preview and Team News

Colchester

Colchester head into the game with four defeats in the last five matches. The win over Gillingham has provided brief respite for the team from a bad run of form. Manager Matt Bloomfield comes into the encounter with very little advantages. The home team may also make some key changes to the squad after the late defeat against Wimbledon. Alan Judge and Sam Hornby are the players missing due to injuries.

Swindon

Swindon immensely boosted their opportunities for promotion with a big win over Northampton. It has sent a statement and Swindon are now just five points behind the automatic promotion spots. Manager Scott Lindsey will be keen on grabbing the position with both hands. Swindon have a favourable run of matches over the next few weeks with three out of their next five opponents struggling with the threat of relegation.
