Forest Green 4/6 to beat Colchester in Tuesday’s League Two battle

Competition: League Two

Market: Forest Green win

Odds: 4/6 @ 888sport

Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the League Two table, Forest Green will host a struggling Colchester on Tuesday night.

Starting with the hosts, while Forest Green might have had to settle for a single point last time out, they are still enjoying what has been a hugely impressive run of form. In their 22 League Two matchups so far this season, they have recorded 14 wins, six draws and just a pair of defeats, scoring 45 and conceding 20 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 48 and holding a seven-point buffer at the top of the table, it should also be noted that the midweek hosts hold the best-attacking tally in the division. As for their recent run of results, despite being last seen playing out a 0-0 stalemate against Exeter, Forest Green have lost just one of their last nine matchups across all formats. Likewise, it should also be highlighted, the runaway leaders have lost just a single League Two home fixture since the end of August.

As for the visitors, only continuing on what has been a woeful run of form, Colchester are in a real battle to extend on their Football League status this year. In their 21 League Two matchups so far this season, they have recorded just five wins, seven draws and nine defeats, scoring 17 and conceding 28 in return. Managing to muster just a points tally of 22 and opening the midweek fixtures sat 2holding just a three-point buffer over slipping into the drop zone, it should also be noted that they hold the worst-attacking tally in the division. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-1 loss away at Sutton, Colchester have failed to win any of their last five matchups across all formats, suffering four defeats. Given the huge gulf in class, we’re backing a home victory in midweek.
