For Sharp it’s a first start in Blades colours since the FA Cup win over Tottenham Hotspur at Bramall Lane over a month ago, while the good form of George Baldock has kept Bogle on the bench in recent weeks.
United go into the game six points clear of Middlesbrough, who face Burnley tonight, while Luton Town, another contender for automatic promotion, are currently facing Millwall at The Den.
