The home team comes to this stage of the FA Cup (3rd Round) after having eliminated: Gillingham and Oldham Athletic.

Carlisle United currently play in the modest fourth division, however, has no reason to smile, since it occupies the bottom of the league table. To reach this phase of the FA Cup, the home team eliminated Odham Athletic and Gillingham, the latter having to play a tie-breaker. In this game in his stadium coach Keith Curle should keep the team in 4-4-3 with the highest positions being held by Bennett and Hope.
