Carlisle United form and stats
Carlisle United must be fairly happy with 5 points from their first three League Two games here at Brunton Park.
Carlisle are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-2 away versus Crawley Town. Defender Kelvin Mellor got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.25/10. Mellor hit three key passes and won 12 of 16 duels.
Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Salford City.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Carlisle matches with similar probabilities have ended with zero wins, two draws and one defeat (from three games).
The Carlisle fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 3 in 3 matches. Carlisle have only conceded 2 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.
Scunthorpe United form and stats
The League Two season is young and Scunthorpe United have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far.
Scunthorpe United have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 266 minutes ago. M. Hippolyte was the goal scorer.
Home advantage was not enough for Scunthorpe in their previous game, as they lost their League Two-match, hosting Exeter City, 0-4. Harry Davis, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.11. Davis won 13 of 15 duels. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Exeter City was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.
Prior to that match, the Scunthorpe manager N. Cox faced defeat when travelling to Northampton Town and losing 0-2.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Scunthorpe playing away, we found seven games. Results were one away win, two draws and four home wins.
Goals are few and far between in Scunthorpe's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. 3 goals have been conceded by Scunthorpe United in these games.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the former ten meetings featuring these two contenders are: three wins for Carlisle United, three draws and four wins for Scunthorpe United. Over 2,5 goals: four times; under 2,5 goals: six games.Top Goalscorers
