This week FootyMad's match preview focuses on the game between Yeovil Town and Carlisle United at 15:00 on Saturday, 17th October 2009 in the League One.
|
Yeovil Town prepare to entertain Carlisle United at Huish Park on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the Glovers.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Huish Park was less than a year ago, in March 2009, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides
Yeovil Town have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. While Glovers have scored 9, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Carlisle Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, losing only 1 of the last six, but drawing 4 of them. A generous 9 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
Yeovil Town are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 12 points from 12 matches. Carlisle Utd. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 11 points from their 12 games thus far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Yeovil Town at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Glovers will at least gain a draw. Score draw
| Sequence statistics: | |
| Yeovil Town | Unbeaten in the last 3 home games. Drawn each of their last 3 games. Not won in the 3 most recent games. |
| Carlisle Utd. | Previous 2 away games have finished all-square. Not won in previous 5 away matches. |
