Bamford faced a late fitness test earlier today after damaging a shoulder recently against Derby County, missing the Blades’ last two games as a result.
Joe Rothwell is definitely out, after being forced under the knife to correct a groin issue, while Femi Seriki will be pushing for a start after edging closer to full fitness with three cameos off the bench.
With all that in mind we tasked our man to come up with the side he’d send out against Nathan Jones’ side at the Valley - has he got it just about right or would you do anything differently?
5. Harrison Burrows
Four 90-minute displays on the bounce since he came back and you wonder if that will be five at the Valley. Sam McCallum will be snapping at his heels but if it's Choudhury's shirt to lose on the right, then surely it's Burrows' on the left | Sportimage
6. Kalvin Phillips
Back fit, and back in my side. Not really one that needs an explanation | Sportimage
7. Sydie Peck
Imagine dropping him on the back of his midweek hat-trick? All the best with that... | Sportimage
8. Tahith Chong
Some nice moments at Deepdale but some frustrating ones as well. Seriki could be another option with One out, but my 2p would be on Chong keeping his place | Getty Images
