Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Cambridge United will look to recover from a 2-1 loss to Rotherham United when they take on Wycombe Wanderers in the League One round 20. The U’s are eager to move closer to the safe zone and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against Wycombe. Kelland Watts is a major doubt after limping off with injury in the midweek loss, while there are no fresh injury concerns in the home team.
The Chairboys, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Barnsley. Wycombe are in position to overtake Birmingham City in top position and we predict that they will take advantage of Cambridge United’s shaky defence. A man to keep an eye on in the away team will be top scorer Richard Kone, who scored a brace in the midweek triumph. Scotland midfielder Jack Grimmer will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Highlighted Team (Cambridge United):
Cambridge United are an English football club that compete in League Two. The U’s play their home games at Abbey Stadium, the venue which was built back in 1923. Owned by Grosvenor Estates, Cambridge United’s home ground can hold up to 8,127 spectators.
The U’s wear amber and black jerseys and black shorts when playing in front of home fans, while white and blue are the dominant colours of their away kit. Cambridge United won the FA Trophy in 2014, with the team making it to the FA Cup quarter-finals two times (1989/90, 1990/91). In the 1968-69 season, the U’s clinched the Southern League Cup title.
Cambridge United recorded their biggest league win in March 2007 as they outclassed Weymouth 7-0, and they repeated the success against Forest Green (2009) and Morecambe (2016). Peterborough United are regarded as the club’s main rivals, but they maintain rivalries with Northampton Town, Colchester United, Luton Town, Stevenage, and Histon as well.
