Carlisle United
LLLDDW
Carlisle United will be looking for a repeat result of the 0-1 League Two success over Barrow.
The only name on the scoresheet from Carlisle United was Matthew Dennis (19').
Carlisle United have really been misfiring in more recent games. Their sum of goals equals just 3 vs opponents during the course of their previous six fixtures. In those games, Carlisle United have also seen the tally of goals that have gone against them come to 8.
Taking a look at their past results, Carlisle United:
- have not emerged victorious against Walsall in their last 4 league matches.
- are undefeated in their last 2 league matches at home.
- have not won at home in their last 4 matches in the league. Fans are getting restless.
Walsall
LDWWDL โ
Since being beaten in their last game against Swindon Town in League Two competition, Walsall will be hoping to turn things around here.
Joel Cotterill (59') was the scorer for Swindon Town.
The stats tell the story, and Walsall have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, seeing opposing sides hit 7 goals overall. In defence, Walsall have seen their frailties exposed. In any event, time will tell if that trend shall be replicated in this game.
Their past results show that Walsall:
- have not emerged victorious against Carlisle United when having played them away from home in the previous 5 matches in the league. They really have not been travelling well at all.
- haven't been defeated in their previous 2 away league matches.

Team News: Walsall
Owing to an otherwise full-strength group, there is just the lone fitness worry for the Walsall manager Mat Sadler to be concerned with. George Hall (unknown injury) misses out for this game.

Prediction
When taking everything into account, Carlisle United might need a bit of good fortune to hit the back of the net against this Walsall lineup who we think might get a goal themselves and run out victorious.
Weโre therefore seeing a very competitive game with a 0-1 victory for Walsall at the conclusion of the game.
Weโre expecting it to be that close.
