Chris Turner has kept faith with his starting eleven from the MK Dons game for this evening's First Round Carling Cup clash with Coventry City.

The only changes to the squad see Mark Cook replace Nick Thomas on the bench after serving his one-match suspension, while new signing Colin Larkin is also added to the subs.

Leon McSweeney will continue to partner Denis Behan up front, with Ritchie Jones playing right wing.

Gary Liddle and Sam Collins continue their partnership in the centre of defence, with Jon-Andre Fredriksen and Antony Sweeney in centre midfield.

Former Pools keeper Dimitrios Konstantopoulos starts for Coventry City this evening - the first time he has faced his former side since leaving in 2007.

Chris Coleman has made seven changes to his starting eleven from the weekend win over Ipswich Town.

Pools: Flinders, Haslam, Collins, Liddle, Hartley, Jones, Sweeney, Fredriksen, Monkhouse, McSweeney, Behan
Subs: Cook, Foley, Austin, Brown, Rowell, Boyd, Larkin

Coventry City: Konstantopoulos, Wright, Eastwood, Osbourne, Turner, McIndoe, Walker, Cian, Grandison, Clarke, Jeffers
