Prediction: 1-1
Cambridge United
Port Vale will be aiming to put an end to their four-game losing run when they take on Cambridge United on the last day of the regular season. The Valiants have been struggling to find their best form of late and, as a result, they will compete in the League Two next term. Conor Grant limped off with injury in a 2-0 loss to Bolton at the weekend, with teenager Jack Shorrock likely to replace him in the starting XI.
The Yellows, on the other hand, are desperate to avoid relegation and seeing that they should be happy with one point from Saturday’s clash, we are tempted to place our bets on draw. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team ahead of the trip to Stoke-on-Trent, both Lyle Taylor and Fejiri Okenabirhie should be recalled to the starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Port Vale):
Nicknamed the Valiants, Port Vale are a professional club that compete in the League Two. Port Vale welcome their rivals at Vale Park, and they wear white and black kit when playing in front of home fans. Yellow, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of their away kit.
The Valiants’ home ground, which was built in 1950, can hold up to 49,768 people. Championship side Stoke City are seen as one of the club’s fiercest rivals, but their rivalry is pretty healthy. The two teams first met on December 2, 1882, with the Potters emerging triumphant (1-0).
The Valiants maintain a rivalry with fellow League 2 club Crewe Alexandra as well. Speaking of the club’s titles, it has to be noted that Port Vale have won Football League Trophy on two occasions (1993, 2001). A 9-1 win over Chesterfield from September 24, 1932 is the club’s biggest triumph.
