The Bluebirds of Barrow take on the Blues of Carlisle United in a crucial League Two match on Thursday night. This Cumbrian derby game sees both teams in the relegation mix and our prediction is that this will be a tight, nervy and edgy contest that may require a moment of inspiration or madness to decide the outcome.
Currently, Andrew Whing’s Barrow occupies the 18th spot in the League Two table with 37 points from 32 games. They are eleven points clear of the relegation spots in the table. In contrast, Mark Hughes’ Carlisle sit bottom of League Two with 23 points from 32 games and they are five points behind Tranmere Rovers who occupy 22nd in the table.
Barrow’s current form is clearly divided when they play at home or away. Away from home, they have lost all the last four. At home, they have won three of the last four. Their two most recent games are both defeats, a 3-2 loss at Cheltenham Town and then last weekend the Bluebirds were well beaten 3-0 away to Crewe Alexandra.
Carlisle have picked up more points away from home than at home this season (12 compared to 11 at home). However, Mark Hughes’ team are without a win in six, and, in their last two games, both at home, managed two 0-0 draws, firstly against Colchester United and then against Gillingham at the weekend.
