York v Carlisle preview

Team news for Saturday's League Two clash between York City and Carlisle United at Bootham Crescent

York will be without striker Wes Fletcher for their crunch home game against relegation rivals Carlisle. Fletcher has been ruled out for at least six weeks with a torn hamstring, so Emile Sinclair and fit-again forward Diego De Girolamo will be vying to start up front alongside Jake Hyde. De Girolamo, on loan from Sheffield United, missed last week's defeat at AFC Wimbledon due to food poisoning, while midfielder Luke Summerfield is still struggling with the thigh injury that has kept him out since the end of January. The Minstermen, who have won only one of their last six home games, are 20th in the table, one place above Carlisle on goal difference. Carlisle boss Keith Curle is expected to hand new signing Jason Kennedy his debut in midfield. Kennedy joined the Cumbrians on loan until the end of the season this week and could give Curle's relegation battlers a major boost. Curle, who has no new injury or suspension problems, will also be boosted by the return to contention of striker Mark Beck, who has completed a two-game ban, but Brad Potts and Danny Kearns remain injury doubts. Potts and fellow midfielder Kearns have both missed the last two games due to respective leg injuries, while defender Troy Archibald-Henville, who continues to nurse himself through games despite an ongoing knee problem, will be assessed.
