Sheff. Wed. are ready to welcome Colchester United to Hillsborough on Tuesday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 3 of the 6 previous games, with the The Owls winning just 2.
The previous match played between the two at Hillsborough was within the last three years, in August 2004, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-3 winners in a League One match.
