The Professional Development League league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 8th and 6th respectively.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Colchester U23 and Burnley U23.
