Morecambe suffered a third straight league defeat when they went down 1-0 at Bradford last time out, while Colchester were held to their third stalemate on the run when they drew 0-0 at Stevenage. However, with three draws and two wins from their last five league games, Colchester claim the title of form favourites heading into this weekends’ clash as their hosts have lost four and won one of their last five outings. After a constructive session and a thorough analysis, we made the decision with the objective of progressing to Euro 2020 through the playoffs," the governing body said on its website. We wish Prosinecki the best of luck in his future endeavours. He's been very professional and showed plenty of hunger in our quest to qualify for the European Championship. Southampton are 19th in the table but only a point clear of Watford who have only won one league game this season. The Saints put in an improved performance last weekend when nearly winning away at Arsenal. They twice led in the game but a late goal saw them return home with just a point. Failing to win that match saw them drop to 19th after Norwich won at Everton. The performances are getting a bit better, but we need to start getting three points now. A missed penalty from Melissa Lawley did not help the Reds' cause either with a visit from Chelsea coming up before the Christmas break. JAMES IN THE THICK OF IT After a relatively stop-start introduction to life as top-flight player Lauren James is taking centre stage for Manchester United. The visitors have kept clean sheets in 31% of their away games this season and their hosts have failed to score in 33% of their home games, adding further weight to our prediction for a 1-0 win for Colchester on Saturday. 28% of Morecambe’s and 24% of Colchester’s league games this season have produced exactly 1 goal, making a 1-0 scoreline the most common result for both teams so far this season. Under 2.5 goals have been produced in each of the last six meetings between Morecambe and Colchester and three of the hosts last six matches have also produced under 2.5 goals, as have Colchester’s last two games, so you can see why we are expecting a low-scoring affair this weekend. Southampton are four points from safety, virtually five because of their terrible goal difference. Their current form is that of a side who may well be playing in the Championship next season. They only have two points from their last nine league matches with 15 goals conceded in the last four. Home form is another major concern with four straight losses and 18 goals scored by their opponents. A move to Liverpool would be strange if Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah are still at Anfield, but if Manchester United don't qualify for next season's Champions League, it will certainly limit the teen's options if he wishes to compete at the highest level. Read the full story Chelsea draw up left-back shortlist Chelsea are readying a transfer wishlist ahead of the winter window as the club looks to strengthen in the left-back area, according to the Sun. Morecambe have lost six of their twelve home games in League Two so far this season while Colchester have won four times on the road and have only been beaten three times. Morecambe earn an average of 0.83 points per home game while Colchester average 1.38 points per away game which is above the league average of 1.20 points. The hosts concede an average of 1.50 goals per home game and their guests score an average of 1.31 goals per away game which is why we have backed Colchester to win 1-0 on Saturday. The Bosnians are at home to Northern Ireland in their playoff tie on March 26 and should they win, they will host either Ireland or Slovakia for a berth in the 24-nation tournament to be staged in 12 European cities. Bosnia finished fourth in qualifying Group J, behind Italy and Finland who gained automatic places and third-placed Greece, who will miss out on the Euros. Colchester have scored 17 goals on the road so far and Morecambe have only netted 12 goals in their own backyard and have conceded 18 times, so you can see why we are backing Colchester to win this weekend. 50% of Morecambe’s home games and 62% of Colchester’s away games have featured over 0.5 goals at half time, which suggests that if Colchester do go on to win this game 1-0 as we have predicted then the goal will be scored during the first forty-five. A lot of things have happened and it feels longer than a month," Arteta added ahead of Tuesday's trip to Chelsea. Yes, a lot of things changed, a lot of positives in terms of reactions and the things they are taking on board. In terms of results it could have been a little bit different, I think we have been very unlucky and other aspects have influenced that.
