Match Preview
Cheltenham Town failed to contain the attacking threat of striker Ellis Harrison last weekend as Steve Evans' Bristol Rovers side ran rampant at the Memorial Ground. Steve Cotterill's side have suffered back-to-back League Two defeats heading into the final game of the campaign.
Colchester failed to respond after Nick Tsaroulla gave Notts County the lead in gameweek 45, condemning the Essex-based club to a narrow home defeat. The U's have followed up three straight League Two wins with back-to-back defeats heading into their game at the EV Charger Points Stadium.
