Match Preview
Zoko wait for Carlisle Carlisle manager Greg Abbott will hand a late fitness test to striker Francois Zoko ahead of the home clash with Notts County. Zoko is struggling with a groin injury and missed the midweek penalty shoot-out win against Port Vale in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy on Tuesday. Craig Curran started alongside Gary Madine against Port Vale, while veteran Jason Price was a second-half substitute and is also in contention. Lubo Michalik has returned to Leeds for treatment on a hamstring strain so Peter Murphy will continue in central defence, while skipper Paul Thirlwell and fellow midfielder Marc Bridge-Wilkinson are missing again due to respective knee injuries. Long-term casualty Danny Livesey (groin) is edging closer to a return to first-team action, but will not be included. Suspensions continue to blight Notts County ahead of the trip. Alan Judge became the fourth Magpies player in as many games to be sent off during the home defeat to Sheffield Wednesday and he begins a three-match suspension. Fellow midfielder Neal Bishop collected his fifth yellow card of the season in the same game and he will serve a one-match ban. Ricky Ravenhill served his one-match suspension against the Owls and he comes back into contention while another midfielder, Craig Westcarr could also return after missing out last weekend with a hamstring problem. If Westcarr does not make it, Luke Hubbins could be in line to make his first league appearance since arriving on loan from Birmingham in August. Striker Ben Burgess is still nursing a calf injury.

Match Report
Madine rustles Magpies` feathers Gary Madine`s sixth goal of the season clinched a slender 1-0 victory for Carlisle and made Notts County pay for a host of wasted opportunities. It was Carlisle's first league goal at Brunton Park since August but, until they broke the deadlock in the 68th minute, the Cumbrians had to defend desperately at times to keep out the Magpies. With first-half possession fairly even it was County who created the better chances and Kevin Smith should have put them in front after 24 minutes when he worked an opening only to see his shot blocked at the expense of a corner. Smith then turned provider for Craig Westcarr, whose glancing header from eight yards bounced inches wide of Adam Collin's right-hand post with the United keeper well beaten. Carlisle's main threat stemmed from Ivory Coast midfielder Francois Zoko who twice tested keeper Rob Burch after mazy runs. The hosts were glad to have Frank Simek on the line to clear from Westcarr, who tried to force the ball home from the tightest of angles. Carlisle were then at sixes and sevens from a Ben Davies corner from the right as County defender Mike Edwards rumbled forward to thump a powerful header against the bar. And the visitors were made to pay for their profligacy when Carlisle grabbed the only goal of the game midway through the second half. Sub Matty Robson fired the ball in from the left and Madine pounced to steer a low first-time shot past Burch from six yards. Madine should have had a second in the 81st minute when Robson laid a chance on a plate, only for the striker to side-foot across the face of goal and wide.
