In good news for West Bromwich Albion, both Roman Bednar and Graham Dorrans passed late fitness tests and are included in this afternoon's starting line up for the visit of 6th placed Sheffield United. West Bromwich Albion will be hoping that Derby County maintain their 1-0 lead over Nottingham Forest - that game kicked off at 1pm, and will give the Baggies chance to close the gap on 2nd place.

Roberto Di Matteo names an unchanged starting line up for the fourth consecutive game.  Shelton Martis and Filipe Teixeira are the only changes to Albion's 18 man squad as they drop from the bench.  Their positions are filled by striker Luke Moore and Abdoulaye Meite - who returned from international duty this week.

Sheffield United boss Kevin Blackwell makes two changes from the side that beat Reading 3-0 midweek.  Ched Evans is replaced in the starting line up by Darius Henderson; Evans drops to the bench.  In defence the injured Andy Taylor is replaced by Jordan Stewart.
