Cambridge U - AFC Wimbledon
Cambridge United host AFC Wimbledon in League One clash
Saturday afternoon at Abbey Stadium, Cambridge United and AFC Wimbledon meet for matchday 8 of the League One campaign. Both sides arrive looking to assert their authority in a competitive division, with the hosts aiming to build on a recent run of results that has seen them remain unbeaten in their last four league outings. Their last head-to-head meeting in the league saw Cambridge United secure a narrow 1-0 victory in October 2021, a result they will hope to replicate as they look to climb the table.
Cambridge United enter the contest buoyed by a convincing 4-1 victory against Gillingham in the EFL Trophy, following a hard-fought draw at Oxford United. Conversely, AFC Wimbledon have shown defensive resilience, keeping consecutive clean sheets in their recent league fixtures against Milton Keynes Dons and Doncaster Rovers. With both teams displaying distinct tactical discipline in recent weeks, the battle for control in midfield will likely prove decisive in determining the outcome of this encounter.
