Sheffield United and Leeds United announce their starting lineups for Monday's Championship top-of-the-table showdown at Bramall Lane.

Sheffield United and Leeds United have announced their starting lineups for Monday's Championship top-of-the-table showdown.

Leeds head into the Yorkshire derby at Bramall Lane holding a two-point advantage over their hosts in the table, the aim being to strengthen their position over third-placed Burnley to seven points.

There were rumours earlier in the day that Ethan Ampadu had sustained some kind of injury that would, at the very least, rule the Wales international out of this contest.

That is how it has proven, with the solitary change to the team that defeated Sunderland last time out being his withdrawal and the two-goal hero from that game Pascal Struijk being drafted into the defence.

Despite Joe Rothwell setting up both of those goals, the midfielder remains on the substitutes' bench with Ao Tanaka and Ilia Gruev getting the nod.

Sheffield United make several alterations

Meanwhile, Chris Wilder has opted to make three alterations to the Sheffield United XI that started the 1-0 triumph at Luton Town.

Sydie Peck is a notable inclusion in the centre of the pitch, taking the spot of Hamza Choudhury.

Harrison Burrows has been preferred to Sam McCallum at left-back, while Callum O'Hare starts ahead of Rhian Brewster in the number 10 role.

However, Sheffield United are boosted by Gustavo Hamer, Tom Cannon and Kieffer Moore all being fit enough to take their places among the replacements.

Sheffield United XI: Cooper; Clarke, Ahmedhodzic, Robinson, Burrows; Souza, Peck; Rak-Sakyi, O'Hare, Brereton Diaz; Campbell

Subs: Faxon, McCallum, Holding, Brewster, Hamer, Moore, Davies, Choudhury, Cannon

Leeds United XI: Meslier; Bogle, Rodon, Struijk, Firpo; Gruev, Tanaka; James, Aaronson, Solomon; Piroe

Subs: Darlow, Byram, Schmidt, Debayo, Rothwell, Guilavogui, Ramazani, Gnonto, Joseph
