Derby vs Carlisle Predictions

  • Derby have recorded wins to nil in four of their last seven contests
  • Carlisle have lost 29 games in League One this season
  • Derby have conceded only 37 goals in 45 league games this term

Promotion within reach for Derby on final day

Derby and Carlisle will likely be playing two divisions apart next season and the gulf in class between the sides should be clear to see when they meet on the final day of the League One season at Pride Park.

The Rams require just a point from their final game to secure automatic promotion to the Championship, whereas Carlisle are rooted to the foot of the table and will be playing in League Two next campaign.

Derby have collected 59 points more than their final-day opponents and anything but a comfortable win would be a shock.

Rams could be tough to break down

Central to Derby’s success in the third tier this season has been a watertight defence with the club conceding only 37 times in 45 league fixtures this campaign.

Since the beginning of March, Derby have chalked up wins to nil against Port Vale, Bristol Rovers, Bolton, Blackpool, Leyton Orient and Cambridge United.

And that looks the best bet when they play host to Carlisle, who have failed to score in 17 league fixtures this term.

As for a correct score, Derby will be cautious of complacency in this match so may not go completely gung-ho and 2-0 looks like the way to play it with five of Derby’s last seven games featuring under 2.5 goals.
