Yeovil look to have done enough to get themselves safe for the season and at the end of the day that is a positive. The Glovers have a tricky home game coming up this weekend against Carlisle. The Cumbrians have won back to back matches in the division going into this one and even though they start the weekend seven points outside of the plays, a couple more wins could easily put them in touch.

Yeovil
The Gloves are on a great four-match undefeated streak of form before they went out and ruined that with a heavy loss at Stevenage last weekend. But that was on the road and they are in decent form at Huish Park with three straight wins behind them and each of those wins was to nil. They have actually banked a clean sheet in each of their last four league games now which made the loss against Stevenage even harder to swallow. Their overall form at home is great with a W8 D4 L5 record and if they could have done better on the road, they would be sitting a lot prettier in the table. Five of their last six games have gone over 2.5 goals and it’s worth backing that option to turn up in this one as well. Five of their eight home wins have actually been by a two-goal margin at home and they have conceded under a goal per game on average.
Carlisle
The Cumbrians have taken back to back wins over Chesterfield and Barnet, the bottom two in the division but before that, they were on a three-match winless streak off form with the greater damage in that run of form coming out on the road. Carlisle area W1 D1 L3 in their last five away games so are a little shaky on their travels at the moment. They are W7 D3 L7 from their efforts away from home so far this term and 65% of their road games have gone over 2.5 goals largely because they have had problems keeping the ball out of the back of the net. They have conceded in each of their last three road games and of the seven victories that they have picked up on their travels, five of them have been with a clean sheet. 84% of their away goals have been in the second half of matches.
Yeovil vs Carlisle Head to Head
Carlisle romped to a 4-0 home win over Yeovil earlier in the season and that is three wins on the trot in the league that they have posted over the Glovers. So they have the clear head to head form. In the last seven meeting in all competitions, Carlisle are W4 D3 against Yeovil and have won two and drawn two of their last four visits to Huish Park.
Top Yeovil vs Carlisle Betting Tip
Carlisle have the head to head form, but the Glovers are in great home form at the moment and therefore they could be ripe to go and snap their winless streak of form against the Cumbrians. Home win.
