Histon v Cambridge preview

by Tom Kell , 02 March 2009

While Burton Albion run away into a league of their own, the rest of the Blue Square Premier fight it out for second spot – Histon and Cambridge will go a long way to deciding who is the bridesmaid on Monday evening, live on Setanta Sports.

Monday's game is live on Setanta Sports 1 from 7.30pm. Click here for details on how to sign up to Setanta Sports on Satellite, Freeview or Broadband.

The departure of Nigel Clough has barely been noticed at Burton, who now sit a pretty 12 points clear of a chasing pack currently headed by Histon.

Barely five miles separates Monday night’s opponents and, in the league, only two points stand between them.

Histon might have three games in hand but defeat would certainly put the proverbial cat amongst the pigeons.

Steve Fallon’s side have gone five without losing and will no doubt be buoyed by the return to fitness of Mat Mitchell-King, but Nathaniel Knight-Percival is a doubt.

Cambridge winger Courtney Pitt looks likely to return to the starting line-up as Gary Brabin looks to extend a six-game streak without defeat.

Mark Beesley is likely to be overlooked by Brabin but Robbie Willmott looks to be a good bet for a starting berth.
