Carlisle United are 20th in League Two but with little chance of being relegated. They can climb to 18th in the table if beating 15th placed Newport County. The home side had gone three league games without defeat before Saturday's 3-0 home loss to Colchester United who are now in the promotion play-off positions. Carlisle have a 17 point lead over bottom-of-the-table Stevenage so another season in the League looks assured. They have won two and drawn two of their last four home league games.
Newport County can climb up to 12th in League Two if winning this match. That would still leave them ten points adrift of the final promotion play-off position. The weekend saw them get a 1-0 home win over Morecambe who are one from bottom in the table. The win ended a run of two straight league defeats, both on the road with nine goals conceded. Only three teams in League Two have a worst away record than Newport. They have only won three of their 16 away league matches this season with nine of the last ten being lost. It's hard to back them on their travels so go for a Carlisle home win.

Newport County are strong at home with nine league wins but only three on their travels. Their last two games on the road have both ended in heavy defeats and nine of the last ten have been lost. Carlisle can be backed to win this match.
