Sheffield United boss Kevin Blackwell has warned his players to beware the wounded animal when they face Bristol City this weekend.

Gary Johnson's side were thrashed 4-1 at West Brom last weekend, but they are unbeaten at home this season and look to be contenders for promotion.

Blackwell told the club's official website: "They are a side that is very solid and Ashton Gate is always a difficult place to get a result, so we know it will be tough.

"They got a tousing at West Brom last weekend so I don't think Gary will have been very happy and he will be looking for his players to give him a response."
