Cheltenham Town, Recent FormThe 3-1 away defeat to Leyton Orient will not have sat easily with the Cheltenham Town squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They have been on a bad run over their last 6 league matches, with 4 defeats and only 1 victory, so they know full well that a change of form is needed if they want to begin moving up the league table.
Carlisle United, Recent FormWith Northampton Town sitting a clear 13 places above them in the table, Carlisle United won't feel totally dejected with their 2-0 away defeat by them last time out.
Their boss Paul Simpson is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 12 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 8 goals scored. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but so far this season they have conceded a goal at least once in 40 of their 42 games overall.
With 4 defeats and just 1 victory in their last 6 league matches, they have had a poor run and will need to turn that around if they want to start climbing the table. It's fair to say that their form in the league has not been good this season, given they have clocked up just 6 wins from 42 matches.
On an individual basis, Jon Mellish is giving Carlisle United's travelling fans plenty to shout about having scored 3 goals in the squad's last 6 away games in the league.
Carlisle United suffered the disappointment of a 0-1 defeat at the hands of Cheltenham Town the last time they met in the league.
The Cumbrians defence has struggled against Cheltenham in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 5 games. Carlisle have struggled to break down The Robins defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
In the last 5 league meetings between these sides, Cheltenham have shown they are a tough nut to crack, going unbeaten against Carlisle in all 5 matches.
With no real injury worries, Cheltenham manager Darrell Clarke will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Carlisle manager Paul Simpson has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
