Carlisle vs Grimsby Predictions
It’s the goal market that we are going to go to for our tip and an over 2.5 goals bet is available at 3/4 with bet365. For our correct score tip we think it should be a comfortable day at the office for Carlisle and are backing them to come away with a 3-1 win, which is available at 14/1 with the same site.
At the start of the season many pundits were tipping Carlisle for a typical mid-table finish, but as we hit the half way stage the Cumbrians are well within the hunt for the League Two title. Carlisle have entertained their fans this season and averaging almost two goals per game has helped them to one of the best home records in League Two. That attacking intent has led to complications at the other end, Carlisle have failed to keep a clean sheet in their previous eleven matches.
Visiting Brunton Park is a Grimsby side who are struggling to adapt to life under new boss Marcus Bignot. The Mariners have managed just nine points from their previous eight league games but they have only failed to score in 27% of their away matches so far this season. Grimsby have a fairly modest away record so they will be doing everything they can to improve on that stat and know if they are to do this then they will have to improve on a goal return that has seen them score 29 times in their 23 games so far. One area that will give them confidence is the fact that they average 1.5 goals per game against their hosts in the last 10 meetings, although that figure is fairly bloated by a 6-0 Grimsby win back in 1999.
