Cup exits in the week for both sides as City lost at home 2-1 to Oxford and Colchester being thumped 4-0 by Charlton both sides will want to put things right. Colchester could be without Magnus Okuonghae as he picked up a red in the League Cup match on Tuesday night but boss Joe Dunne is set to appeal the decision. Bristol City have no new injury worries now Karleigh Osborne is back and he successfully completed 90 minutes against Oxford.

Sam and Aaron Wilbraham know each other’s games inside out from their time at MK Dons, so Steve Cotterill will be hoping he is not forced to sell his prized asset. Your manager, has recruited well, identifying players who can excel in his preferred system of 3-5-2. As we saw in the victory at Sheffield United, Mark Little is a brilliant wing-back, the experienced Wade Elliott is always composed and never embarrassed in possession in central midfield, and defensive midfielder Korey Smith’s athleticism allows Luke Freeman to float behind the two strikers and get strikes off his cultured left peg. As for the new purple and green – colours more likely to be found in Garry Birtles’ wardrobe than in mine – it’s off to a winning start, but I will reserve judgment until the summer tans have worn off!"

Cheers mate Was meant to make it last night and forgot to put it up! Here's hoping for another city win
Same team as Saturday from SC,,noone last night deserved a place on the bench apart from el abd and possibly bryan.
Colchester United FC ‏@ColU_Official The appeal against Magnus Okuonghae's red card has been turned down and he will miss Saturday's game v Bristol. More on the site soon #ColU
Maybe only change in starting 11 for me from last week is Bryant for Cunningham, Cunningham did look a little lost playing in front of Williams, I think Bryant might be a more natural fit there.
