Colchester vs Brentford Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup
by Ian John | in Carabao Cup Predictions
Colchester United face Brentford in the Carabao Cup Second Round, with the home side the underdogs to win the match against their Premier League opponents. Can The U’s cause a Carabao Cup shock, or will the Bees’ sting prove too much for their lower-league opponents? Let's take a look at our match prediction.
Colchester United will enjoy good support at the JobServe Community Stadium for this game. Danny Cowley's team drew 2-2 with Reading in the previous round, before winning 4-3 on penalties to secure this tie against Premier League opponents.
The U's form this season has been a little patchy, losing on the opening day at AFC Wimbledon, before beating MK Dons in the league after the Reading win. However at the weekend, they went down 1-0 at home to Harrogate in what was a disappointing display.
Brentford entered the Carabao Cup in the second round as a Premier League team not in European competition. Thomas Frank's team have played twice this season, beating Crystal Palace 2-1 on the opening day before losing 2-0 to Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.
Manager Frank will likely rotate several key players for this game with a match against Southampton coming up at the weekend. That could see a chance for recent signings Fabio Carvalho and Sepp van den Berg to start, as could Kevin Schade, Ivan Toney, Frank Onyeka, Ben Mee and Mikkel Damsgaard.

Our Colchester vs Brentford Prediction
Our prediction for Colchester United vs. Brentford in the Carabao Cup Second Round is: Brentford to win and Both Teams to Score.
This is a tough game for Colchester as Brentford will likely rotate players but have an excellent squad. Ivan Toney, for example, could start the game. The Bees have conceded in a large percentage of recent games, including friendly games, but they should have more than enough quality to get the result here even if Colchester do find the net.
