Stephen Robinson has been speaking to the media before Aberdeen visit Dundee United in the Premiership on Saturday (15:00 BST).

Here are the key lines from the Aberdeen boss:

• The squad have been hit with a virus this week with multiple players impacted. Robinson says a few players have returned to training but "it will depend how certain players wake up tomorrow".

• Team selection will be a "last-minute decision" and Robinson adds: "I've got an idea of how I want to set up, but that has already changed today so we'll see where we are tomorrow morning. I believe we have a good squad. Sometimes someone's misfortune gives somebody else an opportunity. We'll pick a team that we believe can win the game."

• Robinson revealed Kristers Tobers' recovery has been disrupted by the virus after the defender had hoped to play in a reserve game on Wednesday.

• Robinson was "really pleased" with his side's second-half reaction in their 3-1 win over St Mirren last weekend and praised his substitutes for making a "real impression".

• On the game at Tannadice, the Dons boss says: " A result for either team will be really important. Dundee united have had a brilliant start to the season, but yet we're only one point behind them. It's an opportunity for both clubs to be in the top six by the end of play on Saturday. Certainly, that's what we aim to do."

• Robinson stressed the importance of securing back-to-back league wins for the first time this season: "We haven't been able to follow up a really good result with another really good result. Momentum's everything. It's now trying to get a couple of wins in a row and that's not easy. When you do that in the Premiership you cement your place and get that momentum going so it's a very important game."

• Robinson believes it's all about "getting the balance" right between the Dons being defensively solid and a potent attacking threat: "We've conceded the joint least goals in the league outwith Rangers and Celtic. It's getting that balance right and we're still trying to tweak that and still trying to find that balance."
