Carlisle boss Keith Curle will look to celebrate his contract extension with back-to-back League Two victories as Crawley head for Brunton Park.

The Cumbrians confirmed earlier this week that they had agreed terms with their manager to remain at the club until June 2018 and hours later saw him lead his side to a remarkable 4-3 win at Luton, a game in which they had trailed 3-1 with just 24 minutes remaining.

Curle will hope to have striker Hallam Hope available after he extended his loan stay from Bury until January 9, although he has missed the last three games as a precaution following an ankle problem, while fellow loanee Macaulay Gillesphey is battling a pelvic injury.

Defender Mark Ellis is due to play the final game of his initial month-long loan spell from Shrewsbury, although the club is hoping to secure a longer stay for him.

Crawley manager Mark Yates has no new injury concerns but is expected to tweak his team.

Lanre Oyebanjo and Joe McNerney, both owing to knee injuries, are sidelined until Christmas.

New loanee Josh Emmanuel, who has arrived at the club from Ipswich, is expected to go straight into Yates' starting XI.

The manager, meanwhile, is also expected to start Lewis Young in place of Rory Deacon following Tuesday's 2-1 home defeat by Northampton.
