Carlisle prepare to entertain Scunthorpe United at Brunton Park Stadium on Tuesday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The Cumbrians are slightly behind, with 10 wins posted against 11 losses.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Brunton Park Stadium was less than a year ago, in March 2003, with Scunthorpe inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Cumbrians in a League Division Three match.

Recent respective form guides
Carlisle United's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Cumbrians have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Scunthorpe's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. While the Iron have hit 7 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Carlisle find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 14 games have yielded only 5 points. Scunthorpe see themselves just below half way in the Nationwide League Division Three, showing a record of 18 points from their 14 games played so far,

Nothing seems to be going right for the Cumbrians at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Iron come away with an easy victory. Away win
