Daggers duo banned

Luke Howell and Matthew Partridge will both miss Dagenham's clash with Carlisle through suspension.

Midfielder Howell begins a three-match ban after receiving a straight red card in Tuesday's FA Cup first-round replay loss at Southport.

Defender Partridge is another absentee after picking up a fifth booking of the season in that 2-0 defeat.

Striker Bradley Goldberg is also unavailable after joining Bristol Rovers on loan for a month following seven appearances as a substitute this season

Carlisle manager Keith Curle could welcome back Paul Thirlwell and Alex Marrow.

Thirlwell has shaken off a knock and Marrow has recovered from a muscle tear and illness.

Winger Danny Kearns appears to have put his thigh problems behind him after making his first league start of the season in last week's win against Accrington and forward Steven Rigg is pushing for a recall to the starting line-up after a similar injury.

Striker Derek Asamoah, who has scored four goals in five appearances for the Cumbrians, is expected to resume up front alongside Billy Paynter.
