This is a vital game for both of these clubs but for very different reasons. Cambridge United are 23rd and seven points from safety and host Charlton Athletic who are fifth in League One. The Addicks will want three vital away points from this game. Here's our match prediction.
With just five games remaining, it's looking bleak for Cambridge United. They only have one club below them in the table but did receive a bit of a boost from their last game. United won 1-0 away at Shrewsbury but that opponent is bottom of League One and looking doomed to relegation.
The three points extended United's unbeaten league run to four games, but the other three were all drawn. Only five home league games have been won this season with nine lost. They have gone four home league fixtures without a win.
Charlton are eight points behind the final automatic promotion place. They are looking good for the play-offs though with a seven point gap between them and seventh. Athletic have gone three games unbeaten with eight goals scored.
Away form has seen them win eight league games but lose the same number. Only one of the last five has been lost and we tip them to beat Cambridge United.
