Cambridge United form and stats

9 victories, 5 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Cambridge United, who have the the best goal difference (+20) in League Two, have to build on here at Abbey Stadium in the League Two.

Cambridge enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Oldham Athletic's place. The match ended 4-2 with Jack Iredale (2), Paul Mullin and Luke Hannant scoring. Heartbreak before that as Cambridge lost 1-2 at Bolton Wanderers's place.

An impressive turnaround for Cambridge in the match against Oldham Athletic as a 0-2 deficit was completely turned around to a 4-2 win. Luke Hannant scored the final goal. A goal frenzy last time out for Cambridge, with a total of 6 goals in the match against Oldham Athletic. Fun stuff to watch!

Cambridge United are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 23 goals in 18 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Cambridge are not conceding a lot of goals here at Abbey Stadium in the league, averaging less than one per game. The total is 14 from 18 matches.

9-4-4 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Forest Green Rovers in their League Two matches away.

Forest won their last game, 2-1 versus Harrogate Town played at home. Preceding that match was the 2-2 draw at home vs Morecambe.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Forest manager M. Cooper as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Mansfield Town.

Forest Green Rovers have scored 23 goals on their travels this season, from 17 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Forest have seen the ball go into their own net 17 times on the road.
