Millwall vs Sheffield United

Sheffield United take their push for promotion to the capital as they visit Millwall in the day's lunchtime kick-off. The Blades are hoping to return to winning ways after suffering defeat to Middlesbrough in midweek.

That 3-1 loss brought to an end a 13-game unbeaten run in all competitions and Paul Heckingbottom will be hoping today can be the start of another one as they look to maintain their healthy lead to third place.

Millwall are also looking for three points in a bid to return to the play-off positions. They suffered a 1-0 loss to Coventry on Tuesday and dropped to seventh in the table.

However, Gary Rowett's side have been strong at home this season, losing only twice in front of their own fans. They are currently nine without loss here.

United have not travelled too well to The Den in recent years, losing four of their last five league matches but they enjoyed a 2-0 win last month in the third round of the FA Cup.

Blades boss Paul Heckingbottom has handed in his teamsheet and he has made three changes to his Sheffield United line up today. Out go Anel Ahmedhodzic, James McAtee and Iliman Ndiaye, and in comes Chris Basham, Tommy Doyle and Daniel Jebbison.
