APWin Prediction

HT/FT - 2/2

The APWin team has examined the key betting markets and identified the most valuable opportunities.

👉 Our prediction is: Both teams don't score

It's hard to overlook the part that defence will play in this match. The capable defending of both sides will be tough for opposing offences, which is why it could be a low-scoring affair.

That overwhelming defence is also a great reason to go 'no' on the Both teams to score market.

👉 Our prediction is: Over 2.5 goals in the match

Cambridge United vs Colchester United has all the makings of a high-scoring affair, and we anticipate this game going over 2.5 goals.

Online bookmakers have given good 2.15 odds for over 2.5 goals, and we fancy the chances of that bet paying off thanks to the tremendous attacking ability of the two teams.
