Carlisle United form and stats

Carlisle United have played three League One home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 214 minutes without scoring a league goal. Moxon was the last player to find the net.

In their previous game, the manager Simpson led his Carlisle to a defeat away at Port Vale. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Brunton Park. Midfielder Moxon was the best player on the team with a rating of 8.0 (out of ten) in that game. Moxon hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 2 times and had 40 successful passes (of 49 total).

Preceding that match was the home game against Exeter City that was lost 0-2.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Carlisle United have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 14 matches with the results: Won 6, drawn 6 and lost 2.

Gamblers who like gambling for low-scoring games might be interested to know that this club have played 5 league fixtures in a row with zero, one or two goals (under 2.5).

Carlisle United are traveling soon after this match as the EFL Trophy match at Accrington Stanley awaits in three days.

Carlisle have scored {2 league goals} here from 3 matches, not a lot. Carlisle United have conceded 4 in these home matches.

Shrewsbury Town form and stats

Things could have gone better for Shrewsbury Town in their League One away matches, but 3 points from 2 games is all right.

It's the second away game in a row for Shrewsbury, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Fleetwood Town (placed 23rd) last time out.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-1 defeat against Lincoln City.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 7 similar matches played by Shrewsbury Town in our archives, and the results are: 3 wins for Shrewsbury Town, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Shrewsbury manager Taylor as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Forest Green Rovers.

Shrewsbury Town have the goal stats of 1-2 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
