Well short at the back

29 March 2011 16:30
Motherwell face a shortage of defenders for the Scottish Cup quarter-final against Dundee United. Steven Saunders (ankle) is expected to miss out, while Stevie Hammell (hamstring) could remain on the sidelines, and Stephen Craigan's participation is doubtful as he is on international duty for Northern Ireland in their Euro 2012 qualifier against Slovenia 24 hours before kick-off. Goalkeeper Darren Randolph should be fine to play despite his involvement for the Republic of Ireland while Keith Lasley and Francis Jeffers both return.
