Carlisle United - Barnsley predictions

Kickoff starts at 20:45 on 12/03/2024 played @ Brunton Park refereed by Edward Duckworth

Carlisle United managing to pull off a victory here would be quite the upset. They are definitely underdogs, so even the home-field advantage isn’t able to push the odds lower than 4.89 for a home win.

Though we can’t say for certain, all signs are pointing towards Barnsley as the final winner of this showdown. Carlisle United have been known to surprise us from time to time, though, so the match isn’t a done deal.

Though Carlisle United are here after an away defeat in the previous round against Charlton Athletic , that performance does not offer an accurate assessment of their form. They played as visitors against an overwhelmingly stronger opponent, so perhaps the draw in the first half and 3:2 loss aren’t too bad.

Barnsley are coming off from a crushing 1:5 home loss. Almost no-one expected that match to end the way it did. The Tykes were on equal footing with Lincoln City going in, yet they struggled to keep up and the whole affair turned into a wash for them.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Carlisle United have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

The away team’s defensive record is slipping. They’ve conceded more than 5 times in their previous 3 League One engagements. This, at least, points to this match as a decent choice for something like an Over 5 Goals bet.

Carlisle United already played against Barnsley in an earlier round of this League One season. Barnsley ended that match with a solid home win, though it wasn’t exactly a decisive victory. They’ll be trying to repeat that success, though it’s worth keeping in mind that they’re the away team this round.

We can look forward to an exciting game as both teams have their full lineups available, thanks to no suspensions or injuries.

If you want to get some value out of this match, you’ll need to be willing to take a risk. The best betting offers are found in the HT/FT market, specifically for a Draw/Away bet.
