Chris Wilder has a few selection headaches as the Blades look to build on two clean sheets to start the season, as he looks to coax a little bit more attacking quality out of his side from Saturday’s goalless draw with Birmingham City.
Mark McGuinness has done little wrong since being handed an unexpected run at centre-half, while Sydie Peck has also taken his opportunity in midfield. There is competition for places further forward, too, with Romelle Donovan, Callum O'Hare, Patrick Bamford and Tyrese Campbell all vying to make an impact.
With United still waiting on reinforcements before the transfer deadline, Wilder's current options will form the basis of his selection once again. Here is how we expect the Blades to line up at Swansea - have we got it just about right or would you do anything differently?
1. Michael Cooper
The first name on the teamsheet, in more than one sense. Showing signs of getting back to his best and if he's fit, he plays | The Star/Sport image
2. Femi Seriki
There's decent competition in the form of Matt Doherty but Seriki is in possession of the shirt and you can't see that changing | The Star/Sport Image
3. Japhet Tanganga
The skipper has played a big part in back-to-back clean sheets as United rediscover some much-needed defensive solidarity | The Star/Sport Image
4. Mark McGuinness
He was expected to leave this summer but he remains and after two decent displays I'd expect him to continue until the Blades sign replacements | The Star/Sport Image
