Solihull Moors
- Solihull Moors have won 1 and lost 4 of their last 5 games, including a 3-match losing streak.
- However, they have failed to hold onto the ball in recent games - losing 2-0 at home to Halifax Town, 5-0 away at Worthing FC and 2-1 at Kidderminster Harriers in FA Cup Qualification - while conceding too many goals.
- Jacob Wakeling is the highest scorer for The Moors in the 2026/2027 National League with 5 goals in 11 matches, but Jamie Andrews has come to life in the last few games with 2 goals in his last 5 outings as The Moors start to find their feet in front of goal.
- However, the damage has been done and Solihull are 23rd in the 2026/2027 National League table with just 7 points from 13 games.
Carlisle United
- Carlisle United are unbeaten in their last 2 fixtures after a run of 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat.
- Carlisle United, meanwhile, have looked much more like a National League side in their recent fixtures.
- They picked up a 0-0 draw with Kidderminster Harriers before defeating Tamworth FC 2-1 in FA Cup Qualification.
- Georgie Kelly is the leading goalscorer for The Cumbrians in the 2026/2027 National League with 4 in 11 outings, while Regan Linney has also hit 2 in his last 5 games as the Carlisle attack begins to find its rhythm.
- The visitors sit 14th in the table with 17 points from 13 matches, but have much better form than their home side coming into Saturday's matchup.
Head-to-Head
- The last 2 head-to-head meetings between the teams ended all square, including a 3-3 thriller at the ARMCO Arena in the 2025/2026 National League.
- With the two sides' last 2 meetings finishing all square and the home side having 1 win from 7 home matches, an under 2.5 goals look at 2.52 fits a match that could easily turn into a midfield scrap.
