Gillingham Preview

Last updated : 24 March 2003 By @blades_mad1889

During the Blades 2-0 victory over Derby County last Saturday, Neil Warnock substituted Owen Morrison, Steve Kabba and Dean Windass but the United boss insists that these were purely tactical changes as non of these as reported any injury worries.

The Gillingham player-manager Andy Hessenthaler will miss this game through injury, as he did during the 6-0 defeat to Wolves. Star striker Rob Wallace will also miss the clash he battles against a shin problem and Barry Ashby has failed to shake off a hamstring.

During the pre-match warm up at Molineux, experienced goalkeeper

Jason Brown was forced to miss the game as he injured his shoulder, therefore it is highly likely that Vince Bartram will take his place again.

Possible Line-Up: Sheffield United: Paddy Kenny, John Curtis, Shaun Murphy, Robert Page, Robert Kozluk, Owen Morrison, Michael Brown, Phil Jagielka, Michael Tonge, Dean Windass, Steve Kabba. Gillingham: Vince Bartram, Chris Hope, Roland Edge, Simon Osborn, Mark Saunders, Nicky Southall, Nayron Nosworthy, Paul Shaw, Paul Shaw, Tommy Johnson, Mamaby Sidibe.

Prediction: Sheffield United 2-0 Gillingham
