History of the Exeter City v Cambridge United fixture

Exeter City prepare to entertain Cambridge United at St James' Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, winning 30.43 of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at St James' Park was just last season, in September 2005, as they swept to an impressive 4-0 win in a Conference match.
