Cambridge United vs Blackpool Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

We are backing Cambridge to come out on top when they host Blackpool this weekend and this is available at 7/5 with bet365. For our correct score tip we are predicting a close contest but we think Cambridge will eventually come away with a 2-1 victory, which is priced at 17/2 with the same site.

Cambridge were knocked out of the FA Cup after Leeds overturned a one goal deficit to qualify for the fourth round. The U’s were impressive in that match before running out of steam and Leeds’ superior quality eventually shone through. That performance will be of little shock to their fanbase, who have seen Cambridge in excellent form in the league of late, they have claimed 19 points from their previous eight games. After scoring 19 goals in those same eight games they have fired themselves up the table and they now are just a single point outside the play-off places.

Blackpool have had a funny sort of season and despite an upturn in form last month they have returned to their struggles and started to slip down the table once again. The Tangerines have a solid but unspectacular points return from their last eight games and with an away record which is average for the division they face an uphill battle to get anything from the weekend’s fixture. One thing they do have in their favour is the head to head with Cambridge. Although there is not much in the overall record, Blackpool are undefeated in their previous seven meetings with the U’s.
