Right-back George Baldock is back fit and available after his absence with a calf issue and after coming off the bench at Arsenal last weekend, is now in a position to start according to boss Paul Heckingbottom. “He’s a fit boy, we’re more than confident [about his injury] and he’s in a good place,” said Heckingbottom. “So we’re considering it.”
Elsewhere Oli McBurnie and Anel Ahmedhodzic are both out, while Max Lowe and Will Osula are edging closer to being available for first-team selection.

1. Wes Foderingham
Has come under fire a little in the last few weeks after deviating from his own high standards but will still keep his place bar a late injury or illness

Back fit and on the pitch at the Emirates last weekend, I’m putting Baldock back in – as much for his battling qualities and character as his ability. United are much more solid defensively with him over Jayden Bogle Photo: Laurence Griffiths
3. Auston Trusty
Had an eye-opening afternoon back at the Emirates but will hopefully enjoy a quieter afternoon at Bramall Lane against Wolves
4. Jack Robinson
One of United’s most impressive performers this season, Robinson would be well worthy of keeping his place even if the injury case did not necessitate his inclusion
