Preview

Harry Anderson's 27th-minute goal looked to have earned all three points for Colchester last time out, only for Joshua Stephenson to strike back deep into stoppage time for Crewe. Danny Cowley's men have picked up just one point from the last nine available heading into gameweek seven.

Cheltenham Town responded well after falling behind seven minutes into their clash with Crawley Town as Charlie McCann's brace sealed a 2-1 away win at Broadfield Stadium. Steve Cotterill's side are up to fourth in the standings after a four-game unbeaten run.
