Prediction: 2-2
Carlisle
Newport County and Carlisle United face each other at Rodney Parade in what is expected to be an entertaining League Two encounter. The Exiles are sitting in the playoffs berth ahead of the midweek clash, but several teams are breathing down their neck. Newport are eager to pick up all three points from Tuesday’s clash, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at Carlisle. You should know that the Exiles are after their 11th home win of the process.
The Cumbrians, on the other hand, have been in a fine form of late, with the team recording three wins in the previous four league fixtures. Since both sides are likely to go for a win in Tuesday’s clash, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. In the first half of the season Carlisle United defeated Newport County 3-2.
