Carlisle vs Northampton Town preview - Archibald-Henville back for United



Posted Friday, December 19, 2014 by PA

Carlisle's Troy Archibald-Henville is expected to resume in defence as the Cumbrians bid to halt a run of three successive defeats.

Archibald-Henville, who has to be managed carefully at Brunton Park due to an ongoing knee issue, returned from a groin injury in last week's defeat at Exeter and is hoping to make only his eighth appearance of the season.

Midfielder Gary Dicker remains doubtful as he works his way back from a problem caused by a knock to a plate in his leg, but manager Keith Curle has no major new injury worries.

Midfielder Brad Potts and winger Matty Robson are pushing for recalls as Carlisle chase their sixth win of the season.

Zander Diamond will return for Northampton for the first time since September after an ankle injury.

The defender played in Northampton's 2-1 defeat to Birmingham in a behind-close-doors friendly on Tuesday.

Evan Horwood and Lewis Hornby are also available after lengthy lay-offs with tendinitis.

Hornby is expected to go out on loan once the transfer reopens in January after his lack of action.
