Goal Statistics

Colchester United have been reliable in front of goal of late, finding the net in 5 consecutive League Two matches. Their PG of 1.6 against Fleetwood Town on Saturday suggests they're likely to extend that run.

Scoring more than 1 goal looks like a tall order for Fleetwood Town, with P. Wild's men having not found the back of the net in 3 consecutive League Two matches.
