Blackpool - Cambridge United predictions and free betting tips [06/04/2024]

English football games are absolutely must-see, offering their audiences emotional sensations and vivid memories while piquing the curiosity of even those who aren't football enthusiasts. On April 6 in League 1, England's third most powerful division, Cambridge United will face off with Blackpool at the 'Bloomfield Road' stadium.

Blackpool

The team has spent the last 2 years in the Championship games; however, their performance wasn't exceptional, leading them to the 24th position last season and getting them relegated back to League 1. Presently, Blackpool stands at the 9th spot in the league table.

In the 37th round, they played a draw with Portsmouth (0:0). Following that, they clinched a minimal victory over Northampton. Subsequently, they conceded to Wigan (0:1). In the next game, they lost with the minimum score to Derby. However, in their last match, there was a goalless draw with Wycombe Wanderers.

Cambridge United

This will be the team’s 3rd season in League 1. Before this, they had spent 7 long years in League 2. Each year wasn’t notably successful, but in the last 7th season, they moved the needle substantially. Cambridge United secured the 2nd position and thereby secured promotion. Last year in League 1, they stopped at the 20th position, narrowly avoiding relegation.

Currently, they are at the 19th spot in the league table. In the 36th round, they had a draw with Northampton (1:1). Subsequently, they lost massively to Cambridge, with a scorline of (0:6). In the following game, they conceded to Reading (0:4). After this, they won over Barnsley with a scoreline of (2:0). In the latest round, the team demonstrated a remarkable performance, defeating Wigan on their home ground (3:1).

Head-to-Head

The last head-to-head showdown between Cambridge and Blackpool was on December 16, 2023. That encounter ended with a Cambridge victory, with a scoreline of (2:1).

Prediction

In the recent rounds, Cambridge demonstrated a good performance in terms of result, but they created quite few scoring opportunities, so it's going to be tough on the road. Blackpool plays decently on their field: even their recent matches against the season favourites were balanced. Based on this, I would attempt to bet on the home team's success in the upcoming game.

Prediction for Total

I believe in this confrontation, the teams could show a productive game. Hence, I suggest betting on 2.5 TO.
