In come Gary Madine and Kieran Dowell, replacing Mark Duffy and David McGoldrick as Wilder reverts to the side which faced automatic promotion rivals Norwich.

United can return to the top of the Championship with victory over Dean Smith's men, at least until Norwich and Leeds United play this weekend.

Scott Hogan is ineligible as United face his parent club, so Conor Washington is on the bench.

Blades: Henderson, Baldock, Basham, Egan, O'Connell, Stevens, Fleck, Norwood, Dowell, Madine, Sharp. Subs: McGoldrick, Stearman, Duffy, Johnson, Moore, Cranie, Washington.
