Match Preview
Zoko pushing for start Carlisle boss Greg Abbott could recall striker Francois Zoko to the starting line-up for the home clash with Hartlepool. Zoko impressed as a second-half substitute in Saturday`s 4-3 defeat at Brighton after returning from illness. He replaced Rory Loy at half-time and could now start ahead of him against Mick Wadsworth`s side. Bournemouth midfielder Harry Arter could make his home bow after coming off the bench to score against the Seagulls at the weekend. Abbott said: "Harry showed us that he has got some quality. He is one of those players who can make things happen and he took his goal very well." Central defender Lubo Michalik and skipper Paul Thirlwell could remain sidelined with hamstring and calf strains. Hartlepool first-team coach Wadsworth has no new injury or suspension concerns for his side's trip. Ritchie Humphreys, James Brown and Colin Larkin all staked their claims for a recall with substitute appearances against Brentford on Saturday, but Wadsworth is unlikely to tinker too much following a comfortable 3-0 win. Full-back Neil Austin remains Pools' only absentee with a calf problem that has kept him out of all eight games since February 1. However, he is believed to be making good progress and could be ready to return to full training in two weeks. Wadsworth's side remain an outside bet to earn a play-off spot and are currently eight points adrift of the top six.

Match Report
Zoko magic gives Carlisle win Carlisle battled bravely with 10 men to record their first win in five home games after a moment of individual magic by Ivory Coast striker Francois Zoko. The home side had to play with 10 men from just before the interval after Liam Noble was shown a straight red card for a late tackle on Antony Sweeney - who took no further part in the game. Pools failed to make use of their numerical advantage and Carlisle went on to complete the win. Ryan Donaldson served up an early warning to Carlisle when working an opening for himself with a piece of audacious trickery close to the byline. However, goalkeeper Adam Collin was equal to his firmly struck effort from a tight angle. Carlisle were slow to find their stride, but once they did, they looked the more threatening side and Ben Marshall stretched the defence when he cut inside to hammer a shot from just outside the area which drew a fine diving save from Scott Flinders. Noble was red carded in the 43rd minute when his late challenge left Sweeney flat out. The on-loan Sunderland youngster could have no complaints about the decision as Sweeney was helped off to be substituted by Ritchie Humphreys. It took a special moment to break the stalemate and it was supplied by Zoko in the 67th minute when he produced an overhead kick from just outside the six-yard box to find the net after Frank Simek's cross had spun into the air off Evan Horwood. Peter Murphy then smacked his header against the crossbar from James Berrett's corner.
