Prediction: 2-1
Carlisle
Grimsby Town and Carlisle United go head to head at Blundell Park on day 4 of the new League Two campaign. The Black and Whites did well to record their first win of the season on Saturday, with defender Luke Waterfall scoring a late winner at Rochdale. Grimsby Town footballers have regained a much-needed confidence, and, as a result, the odds for home win have been dropping. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of the visit of Carlisle.
The Cumbrians, on the other hand, head into the match following a 1-1 draw with Swindon where they came from behind to pick up one point from the game. Carlisle, though, are not regarded as good travellers, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered. Brennan Dickenson misses out with injury, while both Morgan Feeney and Benjamin Barclay are major doubts.

Sean Scannell is a winger who plays for Huddersfield Town. The Irish footballer is capable of playing up front as well and he began his senior career at Crystal Palace, before penning a three-year contract with Huddersfield Town.
The English player, who was born in Croydon on 17 September 1990, made 25 outings for Huddersfield in the 2015/2016 Championship campaign, scoring one goal for the club. Sean Scannell has 10 caps for Republic of Ireland Under-21 side, but he has yet to make his debut for the senior team. Scannell was named Republic of Ireland Young Player of the Year in 2007, and in 2008 he was Crystal Palace’s Young Player of the Year.
His contract with Huddersfield Town expires on 30 June, 2019 and his highest market value was €1 million back on 8 January, 2009. Sean Scannell started his youth career in Addiscombe Corinthians, but he played for Crystal Palace youth teams as well.
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.
