Team news, key stats and predictions ahead of Sheffield United vs Arsenal in the Premier League.
Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder is waiting on the fitness of John Fleck, Oli McBurnie and David McGoldrick.
McGoldrick has missed the last four matches with a groin problem while McBurnie (knee) and Fleck both withdrew from the Scotland squad through injury.
Dean Henderson has already returned fit and well from England duty and Wilder will be hoping Republic of Ireland trio Enda Stevens, John Egan and Callum Robinson do likewise.
Alexandre Lacazette is back in full training with Arsenal, although a decision will be made ahead of Monday Night Football on his inclusion against Sheffield United. Emile Smith-Rowe is also available for selection.
Reiss Nelson (ligaments) remains sidelined and the Arsenal internationals will be assessed for Monday's game when they return to training on Friday.

It is a cracking test. I am a big fan of Chris Wilder. I like their energy and dynamic. They have very good variety going forward, while Arsenal defensively are vulnerable too. It is an awkward one.
Alexandre Lacazette will be on the bench which is a good sign. I would like to think Hector Bellerin and Kieran Tierney should start.
Arsenal should be targeting third place with how they have been. They are liable to the counter-attack and you cannot trust the defence, but I expect Arsenal to win.
Sheffield United do not have a lot of goals in them, but they will score. It will be a very exciting on Monday night.
