Colchester United form and stats

When playing at home in the League Two, Colchester United have managed 6 wins, 5 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 14 games. All in all it has been a very rough period for Colchester who hasn’t won a league-game in their last 14 attempts. Their previous win was against Scunthorpe United, 84 days ago.

Colchester lost their last game at Forest Green Rovers (placed 2nd) after a 0-3 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Colchester United lost 1-2 at home to Exeter City.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Newport County are coming to town in four days.

A decent goal production from Colchester United in their home games so far, with 21 goals from 14 league matches. On the other hand, Colchester have conceded 16 goals.

Carlisle United form and stats

The visitors are W4-D3-L6 on the road this term. That's in the League Two.

Carlisle United failed to get anything from their last game, a League Two home match vs Oldham Athletic (placed 15th) that ended with defeat 1-3. The game before that, was lost at home, a 2-3 defeat against Tranmere Rovers.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Carlisle manager C. Beech as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Morecambe.

The attacking power of Carlisle United when travelling is not overwhelming with 10 goals scored from 13 league matches away. It's not easy to score on Carlisle as they have only conceded 11 goals from these away games.

Head 2 Head

The two sides played each other earlier this season: Carlisle United - Colchester United 3-2. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Colchester won four games, two matches ended with a draw and Carlisle United has four wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: six / four
