Colchester vs Harrogate Prediction & Betting Tips

Colchester vs Harrogate Preview

Colchester enter this game hoping to extend their winning streak across all competitions to four matches. The hosts defeated Grimsby 2-1 away from home last weekend in an emphatic and dominant display, throwing all they have at the opposition. Replicating this performance would help Colchester stabilize their form and ultimately lift them higher on the league table.

Danny Cowley’s men are unbeaten in four matches at the Colchester Community Stadium, winning their last two, and drawing two prior. However, these performances can be improved if the hosts make their defence more rigid and compact, as they are without a clean sheet in eleven matches.

Meanwhile, Harrogate are aiming to turn their situation around following their run of successive defeats. Their mist recent defeat was recorded against Fleetwood who defeated them a 5-goal thriller. In that game, Harrogate took the lead twice, but their lack of control ensured that they lost the lead on both occasions before conceding an equaliser that ensured that they left that game with nothing.

Away from home, Harrogate’s form is mixed with two wins, one draw, and three defeats across all competitions. In this competition, they only won one of their last five away matches, losing three, and drawing one. A win here will be vital for them as they are level on points with Colchester (14 points each).

Colchester vs Harrogate Prediction

Although both teams’ performances this season have not been convincing, we back Harrogate to win. This is because they are unbeaten in their last four head-to-head meetings against Colchester, winning three and drawing one.

We do not expect both teams to score because Harrogate failed to concede in their last three meetings against Colchester, and also kept three clean sheets in their last five matches.
