Colchester vs Crewe H2H Stats, Lineups and Live Stream

Preview

Colchester squared off with Crewe in the League Two of England action on September 6. They played out a 1-1 draw.

Josh March scored the first goal of the game on the 39th minute of the match, tipping the balance in Crewe's favor. Kyreece Lisbie found the net next, ending the game at 1-1.

5 months after their last face-off in League Two, the spotlight turns to the field where Colchester and Crewe prepare to meet again. In their last encounter, neither side could break the deadlock, ending in a 0-0 draw. Following their win against Wycombe Wanderers in EFL Trophy on September 2, Colchester head into this clash with renewed confidence. Still, they've had trouble holding their opponents at bay, conceding goals in their last four matches in a row.

Crewe enter the match on a positive note in the same manner, having secured a victory over Chesterfield in their last outing. For all that, their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in six consecutive away matches.

This League Two encounter highlights the attacking players who have stood out for Colchester and Crewe throughout the campaign, even in challenging moments. Jack Tucker and Kyreece Lisbie have been pivotal for Colchester’s attack, under Danny Cowley’s guidance, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Tucker has already scored two goals in League Two this season, with Payne leading their creative tally in the league with two assists. Adding further support are Arthur Read, Samson Tovide and Oscar Thorn, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, Crewe’s Josh March and top finisher Reece Hutchinson have played important roles in ensuring their attack, carefully orchestrated by Lee Bell, remains effective. In League Two, Hutchinson has been Crewe’s standout scorer with two goals, while March remains their top assist provider in the competition with three. Calum Agius, Conor Thomas and Owen Lunt have made their presence felt as well, chipping in with decisive contributions in attack.
