Lincoln City travel to face an injury-hit Sheffield United side at Bramall Lane on Saturday, 10 October, with the hosts missing three key players. The Blades sit 18th in the Championship, four points behind 12th-placed Lincoln, who have 11 points from eight games.
Sheffield United are hopeful that right-back Femi Seriki, defender Harrison Burrows and young forward Ryan One can return for the fixture. All three are currently sidelined, creating depth concerns for a squad that also lost Callum O'Hare, Gustavo Hamer and Andre Brooks over the summer.
Their recent form has been inconsistent, losing 2-1 at Stoke City last time out. Lincoln's own recent results show a mixed picture, with a 1-0 win at Bristol City followed by a 2-1 home defeat to Swansea.
Lincoln's last outing was that 2-1 loss to Swansea on 19 September, where Reeco Hackett-Fairchild scored a penalty. The Imps' current form reads two wins, one draw and two losses from their last five matches. The club will be looking to improve on their -1 goal difference in this away trip.

The match is the ninth of the Championship season for both clubs. Sheffield United will be aiming to use their home advantage to climb the table, while Lincoln City will seek to build on their recent away victories at Bristol City and Preston.
