Madine still missing for Blades
Posted Friday, March 29, 2019 by PA
Promotion-chasing Sheffield United must again do without striker Gary Madine for the Sky Bet Championship match against Bristol City.
Madine continues to serve a three-match ban following a straight red card in the win over Brentford before the international break.
Blades boss Chris Wilder will check on the players who were away with their countries, including Republic of Ireland duo David McGoldrick and Enda Stevens.
Kieran Dowell, on loan from Everton, featured twice for England Under-21s, so could come back into contention having not been involved for the win at promotion rivals Leeds.
City are chasing a place in the top six, and will check on winger Callum O’Dowda, who pulled out of the Ireland squad with a knee problem.
O’Dowda is rated as 50/50 by Robins boss Lee Johnson ahead of the trip to Bramall Lane.
Goalkeeper Stefan Marinovic (thigh) is expected to be available, while Niki Maenpaa continues his recovery from a calf problem.
Midfielder Korey Smith is back in training after damaging knee ligaments in August.
