Sheffield United comes to this game with a 1-1 draw against Brentford, adding the fourth straight match without losing in this competition. It should be noted that the locals are in a position very close to the first division promotion play-off. In this home game, coach Chris Wilder should maintain his usual tactical scheme, namely the 3-5-2, with Mark Dufify responsible for leading the team: this player is very competent to create and organize the offensive process. However, one of the great highlights of this team is striker Leon Clarke with 25 goals scored. For this game the coach can not count on Blackman, suspended, in addition to Coutts, injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Simon Moore, George Baldock, Enda Stevens, Jack O'Connell, Richard Stearman, Chris Basham, John Lundstram, John Fleck, David Brooks, Lee Evans, Leon Clarke.
Coach: P. Heckingbottom.
