Rovers will face up against Colchester United at Prenton Park this weekend in the final fixture of the regular League Two season.
Keith Hill’s men need at least a point to secure a play-off position with Forest Green and Exeter being within reaching distance of Tranmere going into the final day. Rovers are currently in 5th position, three points inside the play offs.
Colchester United, who are currently managed by Hayden Mullins, have secured their safety in League Two for another season and will be able to play with the pressure off at Prenton Park. The U’s sit in 20th position, six points clear of the drop zone.
The reverse fixture was only back in March which played out a 2-2 draw with Rovers coming from behind.
Team News
Keith Hill says there are still concerns over Paul Lewis’ knee injury which was picked up last Saturday so he is a doubt for the weekend.
James Vaughan (knee) and Scott Davies (achilles) remain sidelined with their injuries.

One to watch
Attacking midfielder, Jevani Brown
The 26 year old started his senior career with Peterborough United back in 2013 before having many stints in non league football with seven different clubs.
It wasn’t until 2016 when Brown caught the eye of EFL teams once again as he scored an impressive 19 goals in 19 games for St. Neots Town. This earned him a move to Cambridge United where he would play 84 times for The Abbey side.
In the summer of 2019, Colchester United signed the exciting midfielder for an undisclosed fee.
So far this season he has bagged 11 goals for the Essex side with nine of those coming in the space of just five games during October and November.
