Cambridge United – Stockport County

Cambridge United host Stockport County in what promises to be a tightly contested clash in the lower half of the table. The home side sit fourth with 11 points from six games, having scored 11 and conceded nine, while Stockport sit eighth on nine points, boasting a superior goal tally of 16 but also a leaky defence that has let in ten. Cambridge’s unbeaten run of two draws and three wins this season suggests they will look to tighten up at the back, whereas Stockport will be eager to convert their attacking potency into points after a string of three defeats. The two teams have met only sparingly in recent years, leaving this encounter open to a fresh narrative that could see Cambridge extend their push for the top spots or Stockport climb back into the playoff mix.
