On-loan goalkeeper Mark Brown is available for Kilmarnock's Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash with Dundee United on Saturday after being unable to feature against parent club Celtic.

Killie boss Jim Jefferies will have to decide between Brown and Cameron Bell, who performed well against the Hoops last weekend.

Striker Allan Russell is back in training after breaking his hand but the game may come too soon for him.

Dundee United will have striker Damian Casalinuovo available.

The Argentinian has been nursing a hamstring problem but returned to training on Thursday.

Left-back Paul Dixon will have stitches in an eye wound removed prior to kick-off, while long-term absentees Jon Daly (knee), Francisco Sandaza (groin), Kevin Smith (ankle), Lee Wilkie (knee) and Scott Robertson (groin) are all still missing.

Teams:

Kilmarnock (from): Bell, Hay, Fowler, Wright, Old, Hamill, Skelton, Taouil, Invincibile, Bryson, Sammon, Fernandez, Kyle, Brown, Robinson, Burchill, Flannigan, Owens, Kelly, Russell.

Dundee United (from): Weaver, Dods, Kenneth, Dillon, Dixon Kovacevic, Fotheringham, McCord, Myrie-Williams, Swanson, Buaben, Gomis, Conway, D Robertson, Cadamarteri, Goodwillie, Shala, Casalinuovo, Banks.
