The Chairboys then are rolling along nicely on a four-match winning streak and they got a fantastic win out at league leaders Luton in midweek. That will have done their self-belief the power of good. They are have scored exactly three goals in each of their last three games now and at least two in six of their last seven league outings. They have also conceded in each of their last five league matches so both teams to score is well worth weighing up for this game. Wycombe have gone W8 D3 L3 this season at Adams Park and they have won five of their last six on home soil (L1). It is hard not back a home side in such good form and who have averaged over two goals per game on home soil like the Chairboys have done. A staggering 79% of their home games have gone over 2.5 goals.
Carlisle Form
The Cumbrians are in decent form with a three-match undefeated streak going (W2 D1) and during that sequence, they haven’t shipped a single goal. The two successes in that sequence both happened at home though and they have won only one of their last five away games in the division. They played out a 0-0 draw at Stevenage in their last road game. They haven’t been a high scoring side lately at all and only in one of their last eight league games have they managed to score more than one goal in a fixture. Their defence is going to come under some pressure more likely than not against the Chairboys and it would be a surprise if they blanked the home side. Carlisle have scored 78% of their away goals this season in the second half of matches. Overall, Carlisle Utd have scored in 71% of their away matches.
