ROBSON DOUBTFUL FOR UEFA TIE

Barry Robson has a swollen ankle which makes him very doubtful for the game against MyPa47 in Finland. Chisholm rates his chances of starting at 50/50. Robson picked up his injury against Celtic at the weekend.

On a more positive note, Derek McInnes has resumed training, and might be fit to start his first game since last season, though he is still doubtful at the time of writing.

Paul Ritchie and Lee Mair are also out injured, and we may be relying on a mixture of youth, e.g. Greg Cameron, and experience, e.g. Billy Dodds, to pad out the stretched squad.

United will be looking to give nothing away at this their first European game in eight years. The Finnish side lost to strugglers FF Jaro, which meant MyPa also lost their place at the top of the Finnish league.

The game is live on the BBC.
