The Glovers got themselves a great win over Grimsby in midweek and that snapped a worrying four-match winless streak that they on in League Two. They are still a little bit close to the relegation zone for comfort but three points in this one would go a long way. Cambridge have gone off the boil with a four-match winless streak going at the moment, having lost their last two back to back as well.

Yeovil Form
This has to be a good chance for Yeovil to make it back to back wins in the league. They took down Grimsby 3-0 in midweek at Huish Park and that leaves them W2 L2 in their last four home fixtures. Overall this season on home soil they are W6 D4 L5 and they have averaged 1.5 goals per game for themselves. A Yeovil/Yeovil half time/full time draw may not be a bad option at all here as the Glovers have been leading at half time in eight home games this season. They have scored in each of their last four home games (which incidentally have all gone over 2.5 goals) and a win here pulls them nicely away from the drop zone so there is a bit of pressure riding on it. Home and away combined, Yeovil are on a seven-match scoring streak.
Cambridge Form
The U’s have suffered back to back defeats, shipping eight goals in those two games. They have been a tremendous defensive side for most of the season but it has fallen apart lately. Both of those defeats happened out on the road as well and the U’s are now winless in their last eleven on their travels (D5 L6). So there’s not a lot of reason to back them with much confidence going into this one. In total, they have only managed the ten goals in their fifteen road games this season and even though they have taken a clean sheet in 40% of their away games, they still look highly vulnerable in this one. They are currently the joint lowest scorers in the league along with bottom side Barnet and Grimsby.
Head to Head News
The U’s took a 2-1 win over the Glovers earlier this season and that is a great five-match undefeated streak of form that they are on against Yeovil (W3 D2). So that is a huge positive for them and they have collected four points from their last two trips to Huish Park as well. There is not a great deal of head to head between the two but from what there is, Yeovil are 5-4 up with one drawn match.
