Comparative Team Statistics: Cambridge United vs Blackpool

Head-to-head record

These two have met six times going back to 2016, and the pattern is notable: the home side has never actually lost in any of those games. Blackpool won 2-1 at home last season, Cambridge won 2-1 at home the season before that, and the rest were draws.

There's no long losing run or dominant recent trend for either club here, just a fairly even history with home advantage holding up more often than not.

History slightly favours whoever is at home, which points towards Cambridge this time.

Where they sit in League One

After seven league games, Cambridge United are fifth with 12 points from three wins, three draws and a single defeat. Blackpool are down in 15th with 8 points, having won two, drawn two and lost three.

That's a four-point gap and ten places between them this early in the season, which lines up with the form each side has shown recently.

Goal threats at both ends

Cambridge's B. Knight has been their most productive forward lately, with 3 goals in 7 matches, giving them a clear focal point up front.

Blackpool's D. Charles has chipped in with 2 assists in 7 games, suggesting they can still create chances even during a difficult run. Both teams have shown they can score, but also that they can be got at defensively.
