Notts have had a poor recent record against Cambridge. They have failed to win in their last nine league meetings against United. Notts last league win came on 27th Nov 2004 at ML when they beat Cambridge 2:1. Both teams come into this fixture in good form, so it should be a competitive encounter on Saturday. Cambridge are a possession based team that is flexible with it's attacking style. They employ a high press & are not afraid to go direct when necessary. Notts will have to be on their guard once again against Cambridge's high press when building from the back. I'm sure we will see Cambridge employ similar tactics to other away sides at ML, but of late Notts have been better at countering those tactics. I think Martin Paterson will choose a similar side with the emphasis of being consistent, by playing the same starting eleven as we saw against Swindon, with the exception of Iorpenda coming in for Grant. Notts will be keen to reverse the recent poor record against their opponents, & if they play at their best, I think they can get the win. Notts just need to be alert to prevent & deal with crosses when they come in, & when playing out from the back at all times. My score 3:1 Notts.
