Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Carlisle
Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 2-1
Grimsby
Buoyed by a 2-0 win over Swindon Town, Carlisle United will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Grimsby Town on Matchday 8. The Cumbrians did well to put an end to their dreadful losing run and, no doubt, the triumph gave them a confidence boost. Barring any fresh injury worries, Mark Birch is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated the Robins at the weekend.
The Mariners, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Bromley. Grimsby Town, though, have been struggling on the travels this season, losing each of their three away games and that is probably the main reason why we are going to put our money on Carlisle United. In their last meeting at Brunton Park Carlisle defeated Grimsby 2-0 and we predict that history is going to repeat itself.
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.
