COLCHESTER UNITED v EXETER CITY
Saturday 3rd September 2016 – Kickoff: 1500hrs
Football – England – League Two Betting Tips
Colchester United have made a solid start to their new League One campaign as they look to bounce straight back up to League One following last season’s disappointing relegation which saw them drop down into the fourth tier.
But three league wins from their last four matches has lifted Colchester up into fourth place ahead of this weekend’s round of matches having secured maximum points against Cambridge United, Grimsby Town and Wycombe Wanderers.
They now have home advantage at their Weston Community Homes Stadium when they face early strugglers Exeter City with the hosts on a 100% home record and going all out to register a third consecutive win on home turf. Striker Dickenson (3 goals) is their leading goalscorer.
Visitors Exeter City suffered a third consecutive defeat on the weekend when they lost 4-2 away at Oxford United which followed a League Cup loss at home to Hull City and a 1-0 defeat at home to Portsmouth to leave the west country outfit second from bottom in League Two.
The Grecians have now lost four of their last five matches in this division, and they’ve recorded just one win from their last ten in League Two which was a 2-1 win away at Accrington Stanley, but this win was as rare as hens teeth for Exeter who have found it hard going so far this season.
Exeter’s early away record looks like 1-0-1 2/3 but with the hosts Colchester United firing on all cylinders at the moment, this could be a difficult assignment for the visitors here this afternoon.
