National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Cambridge United or Colchester United that keep their silverware dream alive.
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
Cambridge United form and stats
3-2-2 (win-draw-lost) are the League One numbers at home for Cambridge United so far this season.
The home club members saw a 1-1 draw versus Shrewsbury Town last time out and are looking for a win here. Morrison was "man of the match" with a rating of 8.44 out of 10. The defender Morrison scored one goal and won 7 of 8 duels.
Prior to that, an away loss at Burton Albion in the League One.The manager Bonner will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Cheltenham Town in only four days.
Cambridge United are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 8 goals in 7 games. 8 goals have been conceded.
Colchester United form and stats
Colchester United have only collected 3 points from their away games in the League Two, after 1-0-5 (6 played).
It might be tough going out on the road again for Colchester United, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-5 versus Forest Green Rovers. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Forest Green Rovers was particularly ugly (0-5). The humiliation is still top of mind. The attacker Hopper got a match rating of 6.94 in that game. Hopper hit two key passes.
A 1-3 loss hosting Morecambe before that.Looking at the earlier recent performances of Colchester when being an outsider away as they are today, we find 9 matches with the visitors losing 5 times, drawing 2 and winning 2 games.
After this away game Colchester United return home for a League Two game against Harrogate Town. That game is only four sleeps after this.
{6 goals} so far away for Colchester United, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 12. All from 6 league matches away.
