Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Following a 2-1 loss to Portsmouth, Burton will look to get back on course in the League One when they face Cambridge United in the League One round 33. The Brewers suffered three defeats in the previous four league fixtures, meaning that they are low on spirits ahead of the visit of Cambridge United. Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink should have a full squad to choose from, but he is likely to opt to make changes to the starting XI.
All Saydee, Moult, and Chapman are pushing for a start. The U’s, on the other hand, aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Bolton and Gillingham. Cambridge United, though, are not regarded as good travelers, which is probably the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on draw. All Greg Taylor, Shilow Tracey, Lloyd Jones, and Joe Ironside are out of contention with injuries for the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Lucas Akins):
After making his first football steps in Huddersfield Town youth academy, Lucas Akins made his first-team debut against Northampton Town as he came as a substitute to replace Luke Beckett. However, he made no more than five appearances for Huddersfield Town as he was sent on loan to Nortwich Victoria.
After spending two seasons at Hamilton Academical, the winger, who was born on 25 February 1989, joined Tranmere Rovers in July, 2010. Lucas Atkins scored 7 goals in 77 appearances for the club and in 2012 he signed a contract with Stevenage. The English footballer played 77 league games for the Boro and he scored 13 goals for the club.
During the 2013/2014 campaign he was on Burton Albion’s radar and at the end of the season he joined the Pirelli Stadium outfit. Lucas Atkins enjoys playing football, but dancing is considered his passion as well. His main position is right wing, but he plays as both centre forward and left winger as well.
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.
