Draw to be the outcome
Carlisle and Stevenage were involved in a tight goalless draw and it would not be difficult to see anything else playing out in the upcoming match as well. Bradford have been without a defeat in the last six matches whereas Carlisle are only slightly worse in this regard with an unbeaten run stretching to five matches. This match should end in a draw, as per this Bradford vs Carlisle prediction.
Under 2.5 goals in the game
The Bradford defence was surprisingly exposed by Hartlepool in the recent game but this is likely to act as a wake up call for the team. After having had a stellar defensive record in the last few weeks, it was normal to witness Bradford slip up at the back. However, this Bradford vs Carlisle prediction expects that the normal service is likely to be restored with Carlisle’s offence unable to pick big wins on a regular basis.
Both teams to score – yes
The likely outcome for the upcoming game will witness goals in decent numbers. Both teams have had recent troubles at the back and they want to be among the goals as well. The fight for the play-off positions is likely to result in goals at both ends, as per the latest Bradford vs Carlisle odds.

Bradford
Bradford step into the Bradford – Carlisle match with their position in the play-off positions coming under threat from the likes of Salford and Mansfield. The team has had a very decent run but manager Mark Hughes will be keen on getting the team among the wins after three successive draws.
