Championship side Stoke City will hope to continue their good start with a win against League Two team Carlisle United as they aim for progression in the EFL Cup. This first-round Northern Section match will be played at Brunton Park in Carlisle on Tuesday, with the likely prediction of a tight game.
After getting demoted to League Two this season, Carlisle United started their season with a 4-1 loss to Gillingham on the opening matchday. That continued their poor recent form, losing three of the last four matches. They did score in three of those matches, so they will look to at least find a goal in this match.
Carlisle struggled at home last season and will be hard-pressed here to find some form. They have lost nine of their last ten competitive matches at this venue, and that form could come back to haunt them here. Stoke started their Championship campaign with a narrow 1-0 win over Coventry City over the weekend.
That result made it a fourth straight result in matches involving the Potters to have ended with a 1-0 scoreline. Stoke ended last season with a slightly better record away from home, winning three and drawing one of their last five competitive matches on the road.
The visitors are likely to make some changes to their playing XI to accommodate new signings, but that’s unlikely to put them at a disadvantage.

Our Carlisle United vs Stoke Prediction
Stoke started their Championship campaign on a positive note, although their 1-0 win on matchday one was too close to comfort. They are likely to rotate the squad for this Cup game, which should give some hope for Carlisle United. The home team didn’t quite start their League Two campaign on a positive note and will hope to push their higher-ranked opponents deep. They are likely to find at least one goal, and that’s why our Carlisle United v Stoke City prediction is for both teams to score goals.
