Preview – Carlisle United

The Pilgrims will appear on the channel’s ‘enhanced coverage’ – just as they did when they lasted tasted victory at Tamworth on October 25.
Mark Hughes’ promotion-chasing Cumbrians are one of the division’s form sides and have collected 19 points from a possible 27 on the road so far this season.
Carlisle were 5-2 victors over the Pilgrims in the Emirates FA Cup fourth qualifying round on October 11 – and have since gone on to knock out League One side Reading, ahead of their impending second round trip to Blackpool.
United boss Graham Coughlan will once again assess his selection options ahead of kick-off, with captain Zak Mills limping out of last weekend’s 1-1 draw at Woking with a hamstring injury.
Northern Ireland under-21 international Tommy Fogarty is back in contention
