Venue: Brunton Park (18202 seats)

The visiting Crewe Alexandra side should be favourites in this visit to Carlisle United, as the away team holds a 9 point advantage from their twelve league games this season.

There has not been much time to rest for the guests, as they played a EFL Trophy game only four days ago. That game, against Mansfield Town, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Crewe Alexandra.

Carlisle United form and stats

Carlisle United have played 6 League Two games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 2-2-2 (wins-draws-losses).

In their previous game, the manager S. Pressley led his Carlisle United to a defeat in the League Two match away at Newport County. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Brunton Park. Ahead of that match, Carlisle United won a home game hosting Oldham Athletic (1-0).

The match schedule is unforgiving for Carlisle United as they have a new game in only three days, a EFL Trophy match thankfully also at home. Blackpool are visiting.
