Prediction: 2-0
Cambridge United
St James Park will host Saturday's League One clash between Exeter City and Cambridge United, with the Grecians aiming to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Leyton Orient. Exeter proved their worth in the midweek clash, and despite Caleb Watts being sidelined through suspension, his absence is unlikely to disrupt their starting lineup as he is not a first-team regular. You should know that the Grecians are eyeing their third home win of the season.
Cambridge United, on the other hand, have been struggling in the English third tier of late. The U’s are on a five-game losing run in the league, and their problems were compounded by the injury to talented forward Brandon Njoku during their midweek defeat to Rotherham United. As the visitors are low on confidence ahead of the trip to Devon, we predict that the in-form hosts are going to pick up all three points from the match.
Highlighted Team (Exeter):
Nicknamed the Grecians, Exeter City are a professional football club that welcome their rivals at St. James Park. The stadium was opened in September 1904, and it can hold up to 8,696 spectators.

The Grecians made it to the FA Cup quarter-finals on two occasions (1930/31, 1980/81), with the team advancing to the FA Trophy semis in the 2005/06 season. The likes of Harry Gee, Cliff Bastin, Maurice Setters, Dick Pym, Fred Whitlow, Arnold Mitchell, Tony Kellow, Fred Binney, Darran Rowbotham, Lee Sharp, and David Pleat are one of the most notable footballers who played for Exeter City in the past.
