    Carlisle have won their appeal to get Jabo Ibehre's midweek red card overturned.

    Ibehre was sent off after just 34 seconds, the fourth fastest dismissal in Football League history, on Tuesday night when he caught Accrington midfielder Matty Pearson with what was deemed a high challenge by referee Jeremy Simpson.

    Brandon Comley is available after extending his loan stay from QPR for another month on Thursday - the midfielder missed the Accrington draw through suspension.

    Danny Grainger may return after an ankle injury forced him to sit out in midweek while boss Keith Curle will hope a virus that had previously affected his players has cleared.

    Striker Byron Harrison is expected to lead the line again after his debut double helped Stevenage beat Cambridge on his return on loan from Chesterfield.

    Keith Keane is available again after missing the win over the U's due to the conditions of his loan deal.

    Midfielder Dean Parrett could be available after a foot injury he suffered against Hartlepool earlier in the month.
