Francois Zoko worry for Yeovil

Yeovil striker Francois Zoko is a slight injury doubt for his side's FA Cup third-round replay against his former club Carlisle.

Zoko took a whack on the nose during Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Morecambe and will be monitored, but boss Darren Way has no other new injury or suspension worries.

Midfielder Marc Laird, fit again following a troublesome hamstring injury, was an unused substitute at the weekend and could feature, while long-term absentees Kevin Dawson (pelvis) and Simon Gillett (knee) are also hoping to be included in Way's plans.

On-loan Everton midfielder Liam Walsh is eligible for his third appearance for the Glovers, while a fourth-round home tie against his parent club awaits the winners.

Carlisle boss Keith Curle will check on striker Jabo Ibehre, who played for 89 minutes in Saturday's goalless draw at Barnet despite complaining about muscle tightness before the match.

Skipper Danny Grainger is expected to be fit after sustaining cuts and bruises to his chest and arm following a challenge by Barnet's Chris Hackett.

Hallam Hope is likely to resume in what could be his penultimate match on loan for the club. The Bury striker, who made his first start since November at the weekend following an ankle injury, is scheduled to return to Gigg Lane on Saturday.

Curle, whose side have lost only one of their last nine games, has no other new injury or suspension problems.
