Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Rochdale
Match Time & Date:
28/01/2023
10:00 AM
Prediction: 0-2
Carlisle
Spotland Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Rochdale and Carlisle United, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. Rochdale aim to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Colchester and Hartlepool, and a win over Carlisle could see them escape the relegation zone. However, home win should not be considered as both Ethan Ebanks-Landell and Sam Graham are banned for the match.
The Cumbrians, on the other hand, have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both Newport and Hartlepool in the previous two league fixtures, and given their fine start to 2023, we predict that the visitors are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s clash. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team. The opposition back-line should have in-form striker Kristian Dennis at bay.
Highlighted Player (Liam Kelly):
Born in Newport Pagnell, England Liam Kelly is a right-footed midfielder who plays for Coventry City in the League One. Kelly is a product of Milton Keynes Dons football school, but he did not play for the club at senior level. The English footballer started his senior career at Scottish club Kilmarnock, but after making 100 appearances in the league for the Killie, he moved to England, signing a three-and-a-half-year deal with Bristol City.
The English footballer played for the likes of Oldaham Athletic and Leyton Orient as well before joining Coventry City in the summer of 2017. His main position is central midfielder, but he is capable of playing as both defensive and right midfielder as well.
His preferred foot is right. He made his league debut with Coventry City on August 5, 2017 in a 3-0 win over Notts County, while scoring his first goal for the club in a 3-1 win over Stevenage in April, 2018.
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.
