Martin may return for Blades, Tigers sweat on Brown
Sheffield United could welcome back Lee Martin against Hull City, who are waiting on Wayne Brown.
Martin, on loan from Manchester United, has been out for over six weeks with a knee injury, but the winger could be involved on Saturday.
However, he may be on the bench at best, if manager Kevin Blackwell sticks with the side which won at Burnley last week.
Blackwell has no new injury or suspension issues, so the likes of Chris Morgan and David Cotterill should start once more.
Hull news
Hull will be aiming to hold on to an automatic promotion spot in the Championship, and will hope Brown is passed fit.
The defender complained of some stiffness in his leg after the midweek win at Barnsley, and the Tigers are optimistic he will be able to play.
Richard Garcia (shoulder) and Henrik Pedersen (hamstring) both missed the midweek outing at Oakwell, and could again be on the sidelines.
Manager Phil Brown has no other concerns from the last two matches, although the evergreen Dean Windass is pushing for a start up front.
