Cambridge United travel to Forest Green Rovers looking to extend one of only three unbeaten records in the professional ranks - Arsenal and Liverpool the only other unbeaten teams in the country - and are boosted by the return to fitness of striker Lee Boylan [see Thursday's article].

Team News

With captain Danny Brown (foot) and striker Dan Chillingworth (ankle) still sidelined by injury, and new loan striker Marvin Robinson suspended for tomorrow's match after being dismissed on his debut on Tuesday, Jimmy Quinn has been able to welcome Boylan and defender Gavin Hoyte back to the squad this week after they recovered from injury.

Forward Robbie Willmott will also travel with the squad after playing and scoring in the youth team's FA Youth Cup win at the Abbey on Thursday night.

"I don't want Robbie to miss too many youth games for his match fitness, but he will be involved for us on Saturday and he gives us options with his pace and because he can play up front or wide," confirmed Jimmy Quinn.

The manager has slight concerns over midfielders Rob Wolleaston (thigh) and Mark Convery (knee) and they missed training on Thursday, but he was hopeful that they would be fit to train today and play on Saturday.

Tomorrow's match represents a return to a previous club for three of United's party; Alan Lewer had a spell as manager at Forest Green while Scott Rendell and Stephen Reed have both played there on loan from previous clubs.

The Opposition

United aim to extend the current unbeaten run to thirteen games but Quinn knows that taking four points from Stevenage and Aldershot in the last two games will count for nothing tomorrow.

"They beat Stevenage on Tuesday and they lost their previous two games. We will pose them different problems with our extra man in midfield and I'm confident we'll do well, but we'll need to be on our mettle against them.

Jimmy Quinn

"They have a good striker in Fleetwood, and Beesley can cause problems, so our lads will need to be aware of their strengths but we'll be well briefed and well prepared and we need to make sure we produce quality in the right areas.

"There are some decent teams in this league but we can beat anyone if we keep our team spirit good."
