In this week 15 match on the 15th of October, Cambridge United will host Sheffield Wednesday in a clash of the League One. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 12 degrees, which will be a great treat for players. In their last match, Cambridge United recorded a 1-2 loss against Bristol Rovers. Greg Taylor scored the first goal for Bristol Rovers on an own goal in the 17th minute, then Joe Ironside tied it up for Cambridge United in the 35th minute. Cambridge United looks to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches, while in their last match, 3rd placed Sheffield Wednesday, recorded a 3-0 shutout win against Cheltenham Town. Josh Windass scored the first goal for Sheffield Wednesday in the 3rd minute, then Barry Bannan added another in the 83rd minute on a feed from Lee Gregory In the end, Cheltenham Town was frustrated by Sheffield Wednesday’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Sheffield Wednesday ended the match with the shutout victory. With 19 points in their last 10 matches Sheffield Wednesday should be reasonably happy with their performance.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Sheffield Wednesday won the head to head battle with 1 win.
Sheffield Wednesday’s most prolific scorer has been Barry Bannan. He has netted 2 goals over the last 5 matches. Harvey Knibbs and Jack Lankester are the top scorers for Cambridge United in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
