Prediction: 2-0
Southend
After suffering a heavy 4-1 loss at Salford City on Tuesday, Cambridge United will be aiming to get back on course in League Two when they face Southend United on Matchday 29. The Yellows aim to retain top position in the standings, and it seems as if they will not have a better chance than this to start a new winning run. Paul Mullin, who has found his goalscoring touch of late, will be the man to watch in the home team.
The Seasiders, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Newport, and they managed to get one, with the team putting an end to their four-game losing run. However, the relegation strugglers will have a much bigger fish to fry in Saturday’s football match against the league leaders. In the first half of the season Cambridge United defeated Southend United 2-1.
