League Two games don't come any more crucial than Saturday's game at the Cledara Abbey Stadium where Cambride United host Salford City. Both the U's and The Ammies come into this game in very good recent form and both are very much in the promotion and playoff battles at the top of the table. This should be a close match which makes this a tough prediction to land correctly.
Currently in L2, Cambridge United occupy third spot in the table with 69 points from 37 games. They are five points behind MK Dons and seven behind leaders Bromley, but they do have a game in hand on the two teams above them. Salford lie fifth in the table having played 38 games, securing 66 points, three behind Cambridge.
Cambridge come into this game with just one defeat in their last 24 L2 games. Their recent run has found wins hard to come by though as they have drawn 1-1 at home to MK Dons, then by the same scoreline at Accrington Stanley. They did thrash Gillingham 5-0 at home last weekend, but drew 0-0 at Walsall in midweek.
Salford City have won all their last four games. That run began with a 2-0 win at home over Barnet and then Walsall were up next and were beaten 1-0 also at home. They then beat Harrogate Town 1-0 away last weekend before a 3-1 win over Barrow in midweek.

Our Cambridge United vs Salford City Prediction
Our prediction for the Cambridge Utd v Salford City League Two match is: Cambridge wins.
Both these teams come into this game in good form and both with lofty league positions and little to separate them in terms of points. However, Cambridge do have one big advantage and that is being at home where they have lost just once this season. Salford's away form is considerably worse, with eight defeats this season, despite their good form of late. As such, this may be close but a Cambridge win is the bet to back.
