The 2-1 away defeat to Bromley will not have sat easily with the Accrington Stanley squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.  

Having conceded 6 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 6 points.   They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and they have conceded at least one goal in 12 of their 17 games at The Wham Stadium this season.  

Losing 4 of their last 6 games will be causing some concern in the Accrington camp, but their 2 wins salvaged some valuable points.

Cambridge United had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 1-1 draw against MK Dons.  

While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 11 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 5, and leading to valuable points being dropped.   Their goal scoring streak now stands at 18 games in a row, and on the road, they are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.  

They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 5 games.  

With 4 goals from the last 6 away outings in the league, Sullay Kaikai has given the travelling Cambridge United support something to shout about on the road.
