Colchester vs Mansfield Lineups, Preview, and Team News
Colchester
With one of the youngest teams in the league this season, it was always going to be a struggle for Colchester to avoid relegation. But, they have done it and in the process gained a valuable experience for their squad who will have something to hold onto for next season when they will try to make a move in the positive direction.
Probable lineup: Smith, Chambers, Kelleher, Hall, Greenidge, Ashley, Read, Tchamadeu, Chilvers, Akinde, Tovide.
Mansfield
It was a huge letdown for Mansfield to lose the last two games which put them outside looking in toward the promotion playoffs. There are three teams inside those lines with 75 points, but Mansfield is three points down and with only a theory holding their hopes up for the final match of the season. The worst part of their losing those two games is that they played both at home.
Probable lineup: Pym, Perch, Kilgour, Harbottle, Johnson, Quinn, Reed, Boateng, Oates, Akins, Keillor-Dunn.
Player to Watch: Noah Chilvers
Colchester has one of the youngest teams in League Two this season at barely over 21 years of age, and one of the players that excelled this season within the squad is Noah Chilvers. He has been the highest scorer on the team with nine goals and also added an assist while making 39 appearances.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
