Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting it's unlikely that this fixture will serve up 4+ goals, and the odds and statistics point in the same direction as KickOff's predictive algorithm on this one. Harrogate and Colchester have seldom served up thrillers of late, whether that be in League Two individually or in head-to-head clashes. So, in the absence of a compelling favourite WDW or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. The UK's top bookies have that available at a best price of 1.25.
