Defender David Raven is available for selection for Carlisle's League One play-off semi-final second leg against Leeds at Brunton Park.

Raven (pictured, right) has now completed a three-match ban and returns for the Cumbrians, but it remains to be seen whether boss John Ward will tinker with the side which ran out 2-1 victors at Elland Road in the first leg on Monday.

Ward expects midfielder Simon Hackney to recover from an unspecified knock sustained in the first encounter between the sides, although Cleveland Taylor is on hand to deputise if needed.

Captain Paul Thirlwell came off the bench earlier this week and his experience could see him feature at Brunton Park in some capacity.

Jeff Smith (ankle) is expected to remain stranded on the sidelines.
