- Michael Carrick could recall Matt Clarke and Tommy Conway after they returned to the bench for the clash with Bristol City.
- Jonny Howson and Dael Fry are both back in training and could feature on Wednesday night.
- Chris Wilder will likely revert back to a 4-4-1-1 system in midweek with Alfie Gilchrist and Jesurun Rak-Sakyi stepping into the starting XI.
- Vinicius Souza picked up his fifth yellow card of the season on Friday and will therefore miss this game through suspension.
- Expect Sydie Peck to deputise for him alongside Oliver Arblaster in midfield.
Under 2.5 goals has been a winning bet in Sheff Utds last 9 games.
