Carlisle United form and stats

When playing at home in the League Two, Carlisle United have managed 2 wins, 2 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 7 games. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Carlisle United to get some points in this home game.

In their previous game, the manager S. Pressley led his Carlisle United to a defeat in the League Two match away at Plymouth Argyle. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Brunton Park. Ahead of that match, Carlisle United won a home game hosting Blackpool (2-1).

This is expected to be a close game, with Carlisle United perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Carlisle United as a small favourite), we find twelve games. Carlisle United has won 5 of these, drawn 6 and lost 1.

The manager S. Pressley will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Leyton Orient in only four days.

The Carlisle United fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 8 in 7 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Carlisle United defense is not exactly impregnable. 12 goals conceded from 7 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

2 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Northampton Town playing as the away team in the League Two this season.

Northampton Town are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the League Two against Salford City (placed 18th). It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Scunthorpe United wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.
