Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Tranmere Rovers will look to recover from a 2-0 loss to Morecambe when they take on Carlisle United in the League Two round 25. The Rovers failed to win the previous three league matches, but they are surely capable of making life difficult for the Cumbrians on home soil. Manager Nigel Adkins has no fresh injury concerns ahead of the visit of Carlisle United.
The Cumbrians, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 3-2 loss to Crewe Alexandra. Carlisle United are stuck at the bottom of the table with only 18 points on their account and given their difficulties on the road, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the home team. In their last encounter in the English fourth tier Tranmere defeated Carlisle 2-1, which is yet another reason why home win should be considered.
Highlighted Team (Tranmere):
Based in Birkenhead, Merseyside, Tranmere Rovers are a professional club that compete in the League One. Tranmere were founded back in 1884 under the name of Belmont FC, with the football arms of cricket clubs Lyndhurst Wanderers and Belmont coming together. The club recorded their first win later in 1884 as they outclassed Brunswick Rovers 4-0.
Nowadays Tranmere Rovers play their home games at Prenton Park, the venue which can hold up to 15,567 people. The Rovers wear white shirts and blue shorts in home matches, but back in the 19th century orange and red were the dominating colours on their kit.
Tranmere fans see Bolton Wanderers as the club’s main rivals, but they have built a small rivalry with Chester City and Everton as well. The Prenton Park outfit did well to make it to the League Cup final in the 1993/1994 season, but Aston Villa proved to be a big catch for them in the title game.
