Carlisle to get the three points
Carlisle are looking good to do the double over Doncaster after a comfortable 3-0 win over the supplement early in the campaign. Doncaster might have picked up two wins in the last five league outings, but they have struggled to get the same even against mediocre opponents. After coming through a thrilling win over Rochdale, Doncaster’s legs might be very especially towards the end of the game.
Total goals over 2.5
Doncaster have been involved in some thrilling games already in the last few weeks. There have been over 2.5 goals in three out of the recent five league outings for Doncaster while all of the last five away games for Carlisle have hit over 2.5 goals. Even without any contribution from Doncaster, the previous game between these two outfits produced over 2.5 goals.
Both teams to score – yes
Even though Carlisle are fighting to get into the automatic promotion spot, they have not been defensively solid enough throughout the campaign. It is reflected by a defensive record that has seen them concede 23 goals – in as many games – so far this season. Doncaster are likely to receive decent opportunities to score in this match.
