Morecambe Preview – Can The U’s Double Up?
It has been a rough ride for Morecambe in League One this season as it took a while for them to get off the mark.
They won their first match at the ninth attempt.
That came in a 2-1 away win at Forest Green last weekend and doubling up with a home win would be huge for them.
Morecambe are only D2 L2 from their four home games so far this season.
The troubles for them have been from a lack of goalscoring threat.
It’s been only one goal that Morecambe have scored on home turf so far this term.
The home win in the match outright for Morecambe vs Cambridge betting is at 21/10*
So the Shrimpers have some underdog odds to defy on Saturday.
Understandably so perhaps at Morecambe are winless in six home matches in League One.
Following promotion to League One in May 2021, Morecambe have won back-to-back League One fixtures only once.
There has been a trend in terms of goals in Morecambe’s recent matches.

The over 2.5 goals option is at a quote of even money for Saturday*

The Shrimpers have failed to win any of their last six against Cambridge, losing five.
Cambridge Preview – U’s To Get Back On Track?
Cambridge appeared to be getting some decent momentum together recently.
But that was slammed in back-to-back losses against Cheltenham and Barnsley.
It leaves Cambridge on a mixed W4 D1 L4 record overall this season in League One.
They have failed to bank a road win in the camping (D1 L3).
Two of those losses were against teams who were currently inside the bottom six and were both by a one-goal margin.

They have also conceded at an average of two goals per road fixture.
In the match outright odds, the win for Cambridge is at 11/8*
