Prediction: 2-2
Fleetwood
Cambridge United play host to Fleetwood at their Abbey Stadium in the FA Cup round 1. The U’s suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three League One games, but Saturday’s clash could be the turning point for the home team. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the home side, both Brophy and McConnell could sneak into the starting XI.
The Cod Army, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Stevenage and Wigan Athletic. Considering that both sides are eager to get back on course, we are tempted to place our bets on both teams to score. As for the away team, defender Josh Earl serves a one-game ban following his sending-off in the midweek defeat. You should bear in mind that Cambridge United defeated Fleetwood Town 2-1 in their last meeting at Abbey Stadium.
