Exeter City vs Cambridge United
A thin score last weekend was enough to help Exeter City continue the campaign at the Johnstone Paint Trophy competition. Saturday (11/1), they will try to climb to the top of League 2 when visited by Cambridge Utd. They met in the 27th week which was held at St James Park.
Exeter City also appeared as host when entertaining Ipswich Town last Saturday (4/1). However, they have to wait until the 90 + 3 minutes’ to ensure a 2-1 victory through the action of Lee Martin. This dramatic score also helped them qualify for round four, while increasing the unbeaten record since December to 4 wins and 2 draws.
Back in the league competition, Exeter City tried to rise to the top with a difference of three points from the runner-up position. They believe they can do it after last November’s 1-0 win over Cambridge Utd in the first round of the FA Cup, as well as a third successive win at St James Park.
After all, Cambridge Utd will also arrive with a bad record where they have lost 4 of the last 7 matches. The amount was received after losing streaks to Manfield (2-3) and Macclesfield (1-0) earlier this month.
The bad graphic also threw Cambridge Utd to 13th place with a collection of 31 numbers, two points ahead of Grimsby in the order of 18. With this tight competition, they were asked to be able to steal the numbers at St James Park, even though they needed the help of the goddess Fortuna. Chances are, Exeter City can maintain its dominance as a host.
Our Prediction: Under 2.5
Odds: 1.77
