Sheffield United predicted XI vs. Sunderland: Possible lineup for Championship playoff final

One major change: Sheffield United predicted XI vs. Sunderland

Sheffield United are set to make one change to their side ahead of Saturday's Championship playoff final versus Sunderland at Wembley Stadium.

The Blades smashed Bristol City during their semi-final meeting, winning the two-legged affair 6-0 on aggregate to earn a spot in the final against the Black Cats.

Finding the net in both legs against the Robins, Callum O'Hare is preparing to enter the starting XI of United at the expense of Andre Brooks.

Providing two assists last time out for Chris Wilder's side, Harrison Burrows will continue to bring plenty of threat from a left-back role.

The defender has happy recent memories of the national stadium, scoring twice at Wembley last season to win the EFL Trophy for Peterborough United.

Keeping a clean sheet across the entirety of their semi-final duties, Anel Ahmedhodzic and Jack Robinson will remain as the centre-back pairing in front of goalkeeper Michael Cooper.

After missing the 3-0 home win over the Robins, both Ben Brereton Diaz and Femi Seriki are fit to make the bench for Sheffield United this weekend.

Sheffield United possible starting lineup: Cooper; Choudhury, Ahmedhodzic, Robinson, Burrows; O'Hare, Peck, De Souza Costa, Hamer; Cannon, Moore
