Last season, Colchester got relegated from League One to League Two (England). Head coach Kevin Keen left the club by mutual consent and he has joined Crystal Palace to work as a coach under head coach/manager Alan Pardew. Their pre season preparations have been decent till now and they played a friendly match against Chelmsford City two days ago in which they obtained victory by 1-4.
Crystal Palace have been doing well in their pre-season games and they are still undefeated in the last three friendly matches they played. Alan Pardew has been trying new tactics and the players seem to respond well. The new signings notably goalkeeper Mandanda, defender James Tomkins and midfielder Townsend are expected to play tonight.
Crystal Palace play in the English Premier League while Colchester play in English League Two. As such, there is difference in class, strength and reputation between the players and clubs. Moreover, with Kevin Keen (ex head coach of Colchester) among the coaching staff of head coach Alan Pardew's Crystal Palace, the latter should know what to expect from the League Two outfit.
Some of the first team players will not feature in this game but I still believe they more than enough quality to get a victory in this game and hence keeping morale and confidence high while increasing fitness levels of their players.
