Cambridge United form and stats

5-3-5 (win-draw-lost) are the League Two numbers at home for Cambridge United so far this season. Cambridge United has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager C. Calderwood and the players.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 226 minutes without scoring a league goal. G. Taylor was the last player to find the net.

The fans are hoping that Cambridge United will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the League Two game against Exeter City (placed 2nd). Prior to that, an away loss at Macclesfield Town.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Cambridge United handle that role? We have found eight games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The win/draw/lost stats in these games are W4-D2-L2.

Stevenage form and stats

There's been little loot from Stevenage's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 13 away games in the League Two. Stevenage only have 0 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 7 draws. Stevenage are desperate to end a eleven-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Morecambe fixture. Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 13 away games in a row.

The attacking players of Stevenage have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 390 minutes.

Stevenage's last game was the home draw against Oldham Athletic (0-0). The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Port Vale.

We have checked recent matches where Stevenage have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 15 games were W0-D8-L7.

Stevenage has another fixture away, a EFL Trophy game, against Exeter City in just three days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Stevenage's away games in the league this season with only 6 goals from 13 matches. As opposed to that, Stevenage have seen the ball go into their own net 15 times on the road.
