History of the Wycombe Wanderers v Colchester United fixture

Wycombe Wdrs. play host to Colchester United at Adams Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 4 of the 11 previous games, with the The Chairboys winning just 3.

The last time the two teams met at Wycombe Wdrs. was back in December 2003, over five years ago, with Colchester U. inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the The Chairboys in an (Associate Members) match.
