Fans to pack out St James Park as Exeter City fight for Wembley place
All roads lead to St James Park tonight as far as Exeter City fans are concerned. The Park will be rocking as a sell-out crowd of 8,500 will be watching the Grecians attempt to reach a Wembley final.
City take on Carlisle United in the second leg of the League Two play-offs. The sides drew 3 - 3 in an action-packed first game in Cumbria last Sunday. They have met three times this season and all the games have been high-scoring affairs.
On 19 November Exeter conceded two late goals at Brunton Park to go down 3 - 2. That defeat sent City to the bottom of the League Two table but a twelve match unbeaten run saw them move into the play-offs.
A couple of weeks ago on the last day of the regular season, the Cumbrians won 3 - 2 at St James Park. Carlisle had to win that day to secure a play-off spot but Exeter had already secured theirs.
The Grecians were 3 - 1 up in the first leg of the play-off semi-final at Brunton Park and had two goals disallowed so they'll be hoping tonight it is a case of fourth time lucky.
