Colchester United desperately need points on Saturday, May 8 at 4:00 PM in the League 2. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Colchester United come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Grimsby Town, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 2D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

History strongly favours Colchester United here — they've won 6 of 10 previous meetings against Grimsby Town, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Grimsby Town won 1–0.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Colchester United a slight edge, but Grimsby Town are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
