Lincoln 5/4 to beat Carlisle in Friday’s League Two contest

Competition: League Two

Market: Lincoln win

Odds: 5/4 @ Bet 365

Looking to book their spot as League Two champions this season, Lincoln will travel to a struggling Carlisle on Friday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, putting in yet another worrying display in their 3-0 hammering away at Stevenage last weekend, Carlisle have freefallen out of the playoff positions. With former Coventry boss Steven Pressley watching his side pick up just two wins since the 26th of January, it will be their continued defensive struggles most worrying fans around Brunton Park. Shipping two or more goals in each of their last four appearances, the Blues have recorded just two clean sheets in 2019. Also picking up just a pair of victories in their last six matches in Cumbria, Friday could prove to be another extremely tough afternoon for Pressley’s men.

As for the visitors, while Lincoln would have been disappointed to have only taken a point off of Cheltenham last time out, Danny Cowley’s side have already secured promotion to League One. Really cementing their spot as the top side in England’s fourth-tier, the Imps have remarkably not tasted defeat since Boxing Day. Fans around Sincil Bank will be most impressed by Lincoln’s continued form on the road. Winning four of their last five away from Lincolnshire. Cowley’s side are unbeaten away from home in 2019 and we’re backing them to enjoy another fruitful afternoon on their travels.
