Prediction: 0-2
Cambridge United
Carlisle United and Cambridge United take on each other at Brunton Park in what is expected to be a close League One encounter. The Cumbrians are eager to put an end to their six-game losing run and they are likely to leave their hearts on the field in Saturday’s encounter. There are no fresh injury concerns in the home team ahead of the visit of Cambridge.
The Yellows, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Cheltenham Town and Portsmouth, but they are surely capable of matching the out-of-sorts relegation strugglers at Brunton Park. As Carlisle United footballers are low on confidence ahead of Matchday 34, we are tempted to put our money on the visiting side this time out. Cambridge United defender Liam Bennett is widely expected to return to the starting XI after he was rested in a 3-1 loss to Portsmouth on Tuesday evening.
Highlighted Team (Carlisle):
Founded in May 1904, Carlisle United are a professional football club that have one of the biggest stadiums in the League 2. Brunton Park is the club’s home ground, and it can hold up to 18,202 spectators. When playing at Brunton Park Carlisle United footballers wear blue shirts and blue shorts, while their away kit is sky blue.
The Cumbrians maintain a rivalry with Workington And Barrow, but it has to be noted that the two clubs have not met in the Football League since the 1970s. Carlisle United won their first Football League Trophy in the 1996/97 season, with the team beating Colchester United 4-3 on penalties.
The Cumbrians repeated the success 14 years later (2010/11) as they defeated Brentford 1-0, thanks to Peter Michael Murphy’s goal. Carlisle United recorded their biggest win against Hartlepool United (8-0) on September 1, 1928, with the team suffering their heaviest defeat to Hull City (1-11) on January 14, 1939.
