Cambridge United will face Barnet in a crucial League Two match, with the U's looking to maintain their automatic promotion spot. The U's currently sit in the third automatic promotion place, 2 points behind second place MK Dons. Cambridge have recorded three consecutive clean sheets and will aim to make it four in a row for the first time in a single EFL season since February 1992. Cambridge United produced a controlled performance against Salford last weekend to limit their visitors and secure a narrow victory, extending their unbeaten run to nine matches and recording a 16th clean sheet of the season. Neil Harris made one change from the draw at Walsall, with James Brophy returning to the starting XI as the U's looked to strengthen their position in the automatic promotion places. The hosts started brightly and created the better chances in a cagey first-half, with efforts from James Gibbons, Mamadou Jobe and Sullay Kaikai testing the opposition but failing to break the deadlock. Their dominance continued after the break and paid off early in the second-half, as Gibbons powered home a header from Brophy's delivery to give Cambridge the lead. Despite pushing for a second goal, Cambridge were forced to stay alert at the back, with Jake Eastwood producing key saves to deny late chances and preserve the advantage. The U's stood firm through a tense finish to claim all three points, maintaining their strong home form.
