Reading boss Ruben Selles has made just one change from Saturday's win over Wycombe Wanderers for tonight's clash with Carlisle United, the enforced change of Dom Ballard.

The 18-year-old was stretchered off with a knee injury at Adam's Park and will likely not play again this season.

His replacement on the weekend, Paul Mukariu, replaces him from the start against the Cumbrians in the only change to the starting 11.

David Button remains behind a back four of Andy Yiadom, Tyler Bindon, Nelson Abbey and Jeriel Dorsett.

Harvey Knibbs remains in midfield alongside Lewis Wing and young Michael Craig.

Mukariu and Femi Azeez will look to supply in-form Sam Smith, who starts up front after five goals in as many games.

Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan, Charlie Savage and Ben Elliott provide options from the bench.

Joe Garner, Owen Moxon and Sean Maguire provide recognisable faces on the Carlisle United team sheet.
