Cambridge Could Have Edge According to Bookies

With the bookies giving them a 51% probability of winning, Cambridge United might be a popular acca pick. Their current betting odds are -104 when it comes to triumphing in this League Two clash. Colchester United are the underdogs at +280 which implies a lesser percentage prospect of winning.
