Tranmere Rovers face the trip to Cumbria on Tuesday evening to face Carlisle United at Brunton Park in a 7pm kick off.
Rovers will be looking to get back to winning ways following a draw at home to Oldham on Saturday, leaving Keith Hill’s men 6th in the Sky Bet League Two Table.
Carlisle have fallen victim to the weather numerous times over the past month and therefore have only played 25 games. They currently sit in 9th place in the division, one point outside the play offs.
The previous encounter this season between the two sides resulted in a 1-0 win to Rovers at Prenton Park in Keith Hill’s first game in charge at the Club.
Team news
Keith Hill has reported that Otis Khan has been ruled out for between two and four weeks with a hamstring injury. Danny Lloyd missed Saturday’s game due to illness and will be assessed ahead of this game.
