Carlisle will be looking to get into the automatic promotion spots in the League 2 as they travel to take on Bradford City at the University of Bradford Stadium. Carlisle have 65 points in the league, just one point behind the third placed Northampton Town who are occupying the last automatic promotion spot. I believe Carlisle will come out of this encounter with either a win or a draw for the following reasons:

Firstly. Carlisle are pushing for promotion to League 1, and they would prefer to gain that without going through the process of playoffs. They are within the touch of getting into the automatic promotion spots. By winning this match, they will overtake the third placed team by two points and replace them on that position with same number of games played. Carlisle will be extra motivated to win this match tonight considering what is at stake for them. This makes them dangerous.

Secondly. Carlisle are in a good form presently. They have not lost in the last five games, with four wins and a draw. They have been prolific in front of goal all season, amassing a total of 58 goals in 36 matches. They are the highest scoring team in League 2, and this has been on the show during their recent form. They looked frightening in their last time out as they won Crawley Town 5-2 away from home. The last time they were beaten away from home was on January 1st against Doncaster Rovers. Their away form is just as good as their home form. So they are not going to be fazed going to Bradford City for tonight's encounter.

Bradford City are not playing badly this season though. Bradford are good defensively, but not particularly very good in offensive. In their last three games, they have managed to draw all of them, scoring only one goal in one of the matches. I see them putting up a very solid work against Carlisle's frightening attack. BUt it may not be enough to earn a result for them. It is for these reasons that I believe that Carlisle are very likely to either win or get a draw if Bradford City's defense turn up.

当卡利斯尔前往布拉德福德大学体育场迎战布拉德福德城时，他们将寻求进入联赛 2 的自动晋级位置。卡莱尔在联赛中积65分，仅落后占据最后一个自动晋级名额的第三名北安普顿镇一分。我相信卡莱尔会以胜利或平局结束这场比赛，原因如下：

首先。卡利斯尔正在努力争取升入联赛 1，他们更愿意在不经过季后赛的情况下获得升职。他们触手可及，可以进入自动促销点。通过赢得这场比赛，他们将以两分的优势领先第三名，并以相同的比赛场数取代第三名。考虑到对他们来说利害攸关的事情，卡莱尔今晚将更有动力赢得这场比赛。这使他们变得危险。

第二。卡利斯尔目前状态不错。他们在过去的五场比赛中没有输过，四胜一平。他们整个赛季都在门前表现出色，在 36 场比赛中总共打进 58 球。他们是英乙中得分最高的球队，这一点在他们最近的表现中得到了体现。他们在客场以 5-2 战胜克劳利镇后，在最后一次出局时看起来很可怕。他们上一次在客场被击败是在 1 月 1 日对阵唐卡斯特流浪者队。他们的客场表现和主场表现一样好。所以他们不会担心去布拉德福德城参加今晚的比赛。

布拉德福德城本赛季的表现并不差。布拉德福德防守不错，但进攻不是特别好。在过去的三场比赛中，他们全部战平，其中一场只打进一球。我看到他们在对抗卡莱尔可怕的进攻时表现非常出色。但这可能不足以为他们赢得结果。出于这些原因，我相信卡利斯尔很有可能获胜或如果布拉德福德城的防守出现，就可以打平。
