Colchester – Exeter SOCCER PICKS

The fourth league in England returns, with a strong match in the promotion play-off. Colchester receives Exeter’s visit in the semifinals, and the hosts are slightly favorites to bet. But it is a “which on which” match, which can be decided in any of the directions.

It is the first round of the play-off and we can say that Exeter was advantaged by the suspension of the competitions: it had three defeats and two draws in the last five matches played. With a grandparent attack, the Southerners managed to keep their hopes of promotion, but Colchester is the team on the wave. The white-blues have struggled to reach this position and have a great advantage of their own field.

Before the suspension of the championship, Colchester beat Salford (2-1) and Carlisle (3-0) away, thus managing to secure their place in the playoffs. At the last direct meeting, the two teams drew white, in Exeter, and this time there are good chances to witness a match decided at the limit. In fact, three of the last four direct matches ended in a draw!

-Exeter is undefeated in the last 5 duels with Colchester;
-Less than three goals have been scored in 3 of the last 5 direct matches;
-Colchester finished 6th in the regular season (goal average 52-37) Exeter was 5th in the league (goal average 53-43);
-At home, Exeter lost only one match out of 18, but also drew 10 times;
-Colchester relies on its top scorers, Robinson (11 hits) and Norris (9 hits);
