Wycombe v Cambridge Utd

Wycombe vs Cambridge Preview

Wycombe Wanderers will be eager to put a halt to a three-match winless run in the English third tier when they play host to Cambridge United at Adams Park on Tuesday night as the hosts have drawn twice and suffered a defeat in recent weeks, while Cambridge United will be keen to build upon their much-needed victory on Saturday against Carlisle United.

Following two draws with the likes of Peterborough United and Oxford United along with a heavy 4-2 defeat at home to Bolton Wanderers, Wycombe Wanderers have slipped down the League One table to 10th place but the bigger picture will still give The Chairboys reason to be fairly confident of their chances here on Tuesday night.

The hosts have suffered just three defeats out of their last 12 matches overall in the English third tier, two of which were inflicted upon Matty Bloomfield's side on their travels while on home soil this season, Wycombe have collected three wins out of their opening five games of this new campaign.

Victories against Leyton Orient, Blackpool and Carlisle United should give Wycombe a welcome boost as they prepare for this midweek clash.

Cambridge United ended a dismal run of eight league matches without a win in League One on the weekend when they registered a narrow 1-0 home win against Carlisle United and The U's will now be approaching this upcoming clash on Tuesday night in much more confident frame of mind.

Cambridge United had previously drawn four and lost four of their preceding eight matches overall which included defeats at the hands of Wigan Athletic, Barnsley, Burton Albion and Cheltenham Town, with three of these losses being incurred on their travels which does not appear to bode well for this upcoming trip to Adams Park.

Indeed, the bigger picture shows Cambridge United have managed to capture just three wins from their last 21 outings on the road which came in the form of wins at Port Vale, Accrington Stanley and Fleetwood Town but the visitors have also slipped to no fewer than 15 defeats within these last 21 away games.

Wycombe Wanderers v Cambridge United Verdict

Wycombe Wanderers have made a reasonable start to this season at home and Matty Bloomfield's side have suffered just the one defeat out of the previous eight meetings with Cambridge United and this sort of form should see the hosts having a decent chance of returning to winning ways here on Tuesday night.

In addition, Cambridge United have performed poorly on the road for some time now in the English third tier and their fragile defensive unit have managed to keep just four clean sheets within a disappointing 21-game period on their travels.

Therefore, our main bet will be Wycombe Wanderers win @ 1.75

Other side bets worth considering:

Wycombe Wanderers win & Under 2.5 goals @ 4.33

Correct score: Wycombe Wanderers 1-0 @ 7.50
