Pitman missing for Robins

Bristol City will be without suspended striker Brett Pitman when they entertain West Ham in the npower Championship.

Pitman was dismissed for a foul on Coventry's Jordan Clarke during the Robins' crucial 3-1 victory over the Sky Blues on Easter Monday and serves the second game of a three-match ban for the visit of the Hammers.
City boss Derek McInnes will be hoping his side move further clear of the relegation zone with a second consecutive home victory, but they will have to do so without a number of first-teamers.
Kalifa Cisse is a major doubt with an ankle injury, Lewin Nyatanga is also struggling with an ankle problem and another ankle victim, James Wilson, has been ruled out for the rest of season.
Midfielder Marvin Elliott (Achilles) and striker David Clarkson (ankle) will also remain sidelined for the remainder of the campaign.
