Match preview

Our model makes Chesterfield clear favourites, giving them a 61% chance of winning against 21% for the draw.

Our fair price for "Home win" is 1.64 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 3.0 goals in total (2.03 for Chesterfield, 1.01 for Colchester), which points to Over 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Chesterfield sit 10th on 19 points; Colchester are 23rd on 12.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
