There was another point earned by Barnet on the weekend as they held top-three side Accrington to a draw. However, the Bees are a long way from safety rooted to the foot of the table. Carlisle bagged themselves a win on the weekend as they churned out a comfortable home victory over Chesterfield, who are positioned just the one place above Barnet in the relegation zone.
Football League Two Betting Tip & Prediction
Barnet Form:
Bottom of the league and looking set for non-league football next season. That’s where Barnet are still at, despite a W1 D3 L2 record in their last six which is actually quite an improvement from them. They collected a really good point against the high-flying Accrington on the weekend, and that was at the Hive Stadium where they are now undefeated in three league outings. The Bees have scored exactly one goal in each of their last four home games and have a poor average of just 0.88 goals per game at home while they have taken a clean sheet in just 19% of their home fixtures. They have the worst home record in the entire division which is not a great surprise and only two sides have scored fewer goals than they have managed. Just 31% of games at the Hive Stadium this season have managed to get over 2.5 goals. Expect a low scoring midweek affair.
Carlisle Form:
The Cumbrians are around mid-table and took a 2-0 home win over Chesterfield on the weekend who are second from bottom. Carlisle though are not carrying any away form of note having taken only one point from their last four road fixtures. They have scored nine goals in those four games as well. Home and away combined Carlisle have scored in each of their last five league matches though and they are averaging 1.4 goals per game away from home too. At no point of the season have they had a reliable defence on their travels though so even a both teams to score option may be worth a flutter on the fixture. A staggering 82% of their away goals this season have cropped up in the second half of matches and that’s played a part in them opening the scoring just six times on the road this term.
Barnet v Carlisle Head to Head News:
Low scoring games have cropped up between these recently with each of the last four going under 2.5 goals. From the previous seven league two meetings, Carlisle are W3 D3 L1 ahead of Barnet and they have taken a clean sheet in two of their last four against them. Three of the last four meetings have been drawn though, the last two by a 1-1 scoreline.
Barnet v Carlisle Betting Tip & Prediction:
Barnet’s points-collecting recently is at least giving them hope, and they are facing a Carlisle side who have lost their last two games out on the road and who are not exactly reliable. The visitors are scoring regularly though and that may be enough to get them three away points on Tuesday night.
