Dean Wilkins has recalled Joel Lynch to the starting 11 for this afternoon's clash with league leaders Carlisle.

Lynch replaces Guy Butters - who drops to the bench - to partner Adam El-Abd in the heart of the Albion defence.

Otherwise Albion are unchanged from the side that beat Cheltenham in the FA Cup here on Tuesday.

Carlisle make four changes from the side that lost to Grimsby in the FA Cup in midweek; Joe Anyinsah, Simon Hackney and Danny Carlton all return, while new loan signing Richard Keogh makes his debut in midfield.

Albion: (4-4-2) Kuipers; Whing, El-Abd, Lynch, Richards; Robinson, O'Callaghan, Hammond, Cox; Forster, Savage. Subs: Sullivan (GK), Martot, Elder, Butters, Fraser.

Carlisle: (4-4-2) Westwood; Raven, Livesey, Keogh, Aranalde; Anyinsah, Lumsdon, Bridge-Wilkinson, Hackney; Carlton, Garner. Subs: Howarth (GK), Murphy, Gall, Graham, Smith.

Referee: Stuart Attwell
