In one of Saturday's matches of the 45th round of the First League, Cambridge United will host Derby County at Abbey Stadium. Here's the prediction for this match from the Dailysports expert team.
Cambridge United
United is currently fighting to avoid relegation from the First League. At the moment, Harry Monk's team sits in 19th place in the league table. With 46 points from 43 matches played, "The U’s" are only five points above the relegation zone.
In the last round, Cambridge suffered a 0-1 defeat away to Bristol Rovers. This loss marked the team's second defeat in the last three matches and significantly worsened their league position. However, Cambridge has managed to secure eight victories at home in the current First League campaign.
Derby County
The Rams are having an excellent season and are aiming for direct promotion to the Championship. Currently, Derby County occupies the second place in the league table with 86 points from 44 matches. They trail league leaders Portsmouth by eight points, but more importantly, Bolton is just three points behind, and Peterborough could still catch up despite being six points adrift.
In the last match, Paul Warne's team hosted Leyton Orient and secured a 3-0 victory. This win extended Derby's unbeaten streak to four matches. However, when it comes to away matches, Derby County has drawn their last two games and hasn't won in three consecutive matches.
