History of the Carlisle United v Barnet fixture

Carlisle Utd. are ready to welcome Barnet to Brunton Park Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Cumbrians are clearly on top, beating their opponents 5 times from 8 games.

The previous match played between the two at Brunton Park Stadium was within the last three years, in November 2001, the Cumbrians carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a F.A. Cup match.
