Prediction: 2-0
Cambridge United
Saturday’s football game at the Wham Stadium pits together Accrington and Cambridge United, the two relegation-threatened sides. The Accy Stanley desperately needed a win against Bolton and they managed to get one thanks to Ethan Hamilton’s goal. Barring any fresh injury worries, John Coleman is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Trotters.
The U’s, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Wycombe (1-2) and Plymouth (1-3) and given their shaky defence, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match. In the first half of the season Harvey Rodgers’ goal on the stroke of the half-time helped Accrington beat Cambridge United and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. To make things even worse for the visiting side, Harrison Dunk is widely expected to return to the starting XI.
