Sheffield Untied and Leeds United are back in action today as they meet at Bramall Lane in a Yorkshire derby.

The Blades go with Aaron Ramsdale in goal, behind a back three of Chris Basham, Ethan Ampadu and Jack Robinson.

George Baldock and Enda Stevens line up as the wing backs, with John Lundstram and Ben Osborn flanking Sander Berge in midfield.

Oliver Burke is again given the nod up top alongside David McGoldrick, meaning Oliver McBurnie and Billy Sharp have to settle for places on the bench.

They’re joined by Wes Foderingham, Phil Jagielka, Max Lowe, John Fleck and Oliver Norwood this afternoon.

Meanwhile, Leeds have Illan Meslier between the sticks, with Luke Ayling, Robin Koch, Liam Cooper and Stuart Dallas ahead of him.

Kalvin Phillips and Mateusz Klich continue in midfield, with Tyler Roberts picked as the more advanced midfielder given Pablo Hernandez’s absence.

Helder Costa, Jack Harrison and Patrick Bamford continue as the front three, with Rodrigo again named on the bench.

Elia Caprile, Pascal Struijk, Leif Davis, Ezgjan Alioski, Jamie Shackleton and Ian Carlo Poveda join Rodrigo on the bench today.
