Former Sheffield United striker Callum Robinson is likely to feature against his former club when Cardiff City hosts the Blades tomorrow in the 3:00 PM kick-off.

The striker, who was recently dismissed in the local derby with Swansea City, has scored three goals in ten league games since his arrival from West Bromwich Albion in September.

Having named Mark Hudson as Bluebirds boss until the end of the season (at least), the Welsh club will be looking to march on up the Championship table. They have been without a manager since Steve Morrison was relieved of his duties on 18th September.

Cardiff City currently sit below midtable with twenty league matches played and have recorded two victories in their last six Championship outings. The former Premier League outfit were defeated 3-2 at home to Hull City in their last encounter, which saw former Sheffield United midfielder, Regan Slater, net twice in the final fifteen minutes to record a win for the Tigers.

The Bluebirds are expected to be without trio Ebou Adams (shoulder), Jamilu Collins (ACL), and Isaak Davies (knee), through injury. However, they are likely to field former Blades striker Callum Robinson to face his old club. The striker was signed from Preston North End in July 2019, before being transferred to West Bromwich Albion in September 2020, after initially joining the Baggies on loan in January 2020. With United, he made 19 appearances in all competitions and scored once in a 2-2 draw at Chelsea in the Premier League.
