Salford City are hoping a busy January can help propel the team into the top seven, but the 2-1 loss at Bradford was a setback for Gary Bowyer's men, who are now four points off the playoffs. Colchester United, meanwhile, have looked to improve their own situation by changing head coach, with Hayden Mullins dismissed and Wayne Brown taking interim charge at a difficult time for the club and chairman Robbie Cowling. Salford are likely to be on top for much of this match and should be able to get the result they need to close the gap. 2:0
Matty Willock is suspended after his red card against Bristol Rovers, while Brandon Thomas-Asante is banned following his dismissal at Bradford. Myles Kenlock will be in the squad after joining on loan from Ipswich. If Kenlock excels, a permanent deal in the summer would seem highly likely.
