Premium Tips

Andy expects a tight game and leans towards the draw.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Cambridge to win and under 2.5 goals4/1Cambridge arrive in decent nick, winning two of their four League One games including a 2-1 success away at Bradford last time out and a 3-2 home win over Wigan, so there is real belief they can take something at the Pirelli. On the goals angle, Cambridge have shown they can keep things tight on the road, grinding out a controlled 1-1 draw at Bromley, while Burton were themselves pegged back to a low-scoring 1-1 at home by Stevenage. If Cambridge carry that away-day discipline into this trip and frustrate the hosts, a narrow United victory with the game staying under 2.5 goals is a realistic shout.
Ben Knight to score anytime and Matthew Dennis over 0.5 shots on target13/2Ben Knight has been a lively performer for Cambridge, netting twice in four League One appearances and firing in three shots on target as a regular starter, so he stacks up as a sound anytime scorer in this one. For the second leg, Matthew Dennis has already opened his account for Burton and has been starting up front, and with the low bar of just one shot on target needed, the striker looks a fair pick to test the keeper at least once in front of his home fans. Both are involved enough in their sides’ attacks to deliver their part of this double.

How Burton go into the game

Burton thrashed AFC Wimbledon 4-1 last time out, an eye-catching home win. The Pirelli will hope for more of the same.

Direct and dangerous at home, Burton will fancy their chances. Backing up that win is the aim.

How Cambridge go into the game

Cambridge won 2-1 at Bradford last time out, a fine away result. Confidence will be high heading to Burton.

Well-organised and dangerous, Cambridge are quietly building momentum. A point on the road would be no disaster.
