Sheffield United pair David McGoldrick and Callum Robinson are in a race to be fit for the home game against Southampton.
McGoldrick (shoulder) and Robinson (hamstring) both returned early from international duty with the Republic of Ireland this week after their draw against Switzerland.
But Michael Obafemi and Ryan Bertrand, who have been sidelined by cramp and an ankle problem respectively, have been described by boss Ralph Hasenhuttl as “options”, and Moussa Djenepo (muscle problem) could be back involved as well.
Provisional squad: Henderson, Baldock, Stevens, O’Connell, Basham, Lundstram, L Freeman, McBurnie, Robinson, Egan, Norwood, Fleck, Osborn, Mousset, McGoldrick, Sharp, Moore, Besic.
Southampton provisional squad: Gunn, McCarthy, Soares, Valery, Yoshida, Stephens, Bednarek, Vestergaard, Bertrand, Romeu, Ward-Prowse, Hojbjerg, Armstrong, Boufal, Long, Obafemi, Ings, Adams, N’Lundulu, Djenepo.
