Colchester United form and stats

2 victories, 2 draws and 1 defeat. That’s what Colchester United have to build on here at JobServe Community Stadium in the League Two.

The home team returns to JobServe Community Stadium after sharing the points with Macclesfield Town (placed 17th) on their last time out; the League Two game ended 1-1. Preceding that game was the home draw versus Tottenham Hotspur that ended 0-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Colchester United have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found ten games) they have won 4 times, drawn 2 and lost 4.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Colchester United, as the EFL Trophy home game vs Tottenham U21 is only three days away.

Colchester United has scored 5 league goals at home this season, in 5 matches. Colchester United have only conceded 4 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Stevenage form and stats

0-3-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Stevenage, who have the fewest scored goals (7) in League Two, in their League Two matches away. Stevenage are desperate to end a eleven-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Salford City fixture.

There were no winners in Stevenage's previous match, a League Two home game that ended 1-1 vs Cambridge United (placed 11th). A 0-0 draw at Forest Green Rovers's stadium before that.

We have checked recent matches where Stevenage have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those eleven games were W0-D5-L6.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The EFL Trophy trip to Wycombe Wanderers.

Stevenage are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 2 goals from 5 away games. 6 goals have been conceded by Stevenage in these games.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Colchester United won 7 games, 1 match ended with a draw and Stevenage has 2 wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: 6 / 4
