Calderwood worries ahead of Tannadice clash

Dunfermline boss Jimmy Calderwood has a number of injury worries ahead of the clash with Dundee United at Tannadice.

Lithuanian defender Andrius Skerla will definitely be missing from the line-up because of suspension, and Calderwood has three more players sidelined.

Scott Thomson has a broken rib and Steven Boyle and Stephen Hampshire are also out through injury.

Gary Mason is also a doubt having twisted an ankle in training.

Calderwood is also hoping Youssef Rossi will return from international duty fit enough to play.

Dundee United manager Alex Smith has such injury worries and is pondering changes up front.

Jim Hamilton could make way for Steven Thompson as Derek Lilley's striker partner.
