The Cheltenham Town & Cambridge United managers M. Duff and M. Bonner are both dreading and looking forward to this decisive game in the upper regions of the League Two league table.
Cheltenham have less rest than Cambridge United in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a League Two game only three days ago. This match was also played here at Jonny-Rocks Stadium. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Cambridge United have had more rest.
