Carlisle defender Chris Chantler is hoping to shake off ankle and hamstring problems in time for Friday's game at Wycombe.

Chantler, who has made the left-back position his own in recent weeks as Matty Robson remains sidelined with a back injury, faces a race against the clock as the Cumbrians look to maintain their play-off challenge.
If Chantler wins his fitness race manager Greg Abbott is likely to name an unchanged side for the seventh consecutive game.
That would mean striker Francois Zoko keeping Jordan Cook, on loan from Sunderland, on the substitutes' bench and centre-half Danny Livesey preferred to Lubo Michalik alongside Peter Murphy.
Midfielder Paul Thirlwell is expected to remain sidelined after missing the last eight games due to a calf injury.
The Cumbrians, four points clear of seventh-placed Notts County with a game in hand, are unbeaten in their last seven matches.
