Workington Reds manager Danny Grainger will return to the starting line-up as a player tonight when his side take on Droylsden at Borough Park in an FA Trophy preliminary round replay (7.45pm kick-off).
With Gari Rowntree ruled out due to a hamstring injury, Grainger has elected to start himself at the heart of the back four alongside Dan Wordsworth with Matty Clarke and Liam Brockbank at full-back.
Brad Carroll misses out with a hip injury while the game has come too soon for Sam Smith, who has a chance to be back for this weekend's NPL North West Division match against Runcorn Linnets.
Centre-back Jordan Little, who has just been announced as a new signing for Reds from Cleator Moor, is not eligible to play tonight as he did not feature in Saturday's game.
Reds: Mitchell, Clarke, Brockbank, Wordsworth, Grainger, Casson, Symington, Hubbold, Kelly, Allison, Tinnion. Subs: Bowman, Hebson, Ivison, Atkinson, Waterston.
Droylsden: Thompson, Caddick, Rigby, Rooney, Neville, Langford, Hickman, Wilkins, Rouse, Clooney, West. Subs: Frost, Bianga, Murray, Tserpes, Clarke, Burns, Hewitt.
