Sports Mole looks at how Sheffield United could line up for Sunday's Premier League clash with Arsenal.

Sheffield United caretaker boss Paul Heckingbottom will be forced into a defensive reshuffle for Sunday's home Premier League clash with Arsenal.

Jayden Bogle and George Baldock were taken off in last week's 2-1 loss to Leeds United with concussion, meaning that both players are expected to sit this one out.

That leaves United without any recognised right-backs, so Enda Stevens - who himself has just recovered from a minor injury - may be asked to shift across to that flank.

Should that be the case, Ethan Ampadu will be ready to return to the side in the heart of defence, with Phil Jagielka and John Egan either side.

The Blades will definitely be without Jack O'Connell, Jack Robinson, Jack Rodwell, Billy Sharp and Sander Berge for this match, while Chris Basham is not 100% fit.

United are the lowest scorers in the division, but Heckingbottom looks set to keep faith with Oli McBurnie and David McGoldrick up top.

Lys Mousset and Rhian Brewster, who is still seeking his first goal since joining the club from Liverpool last year, are alternative options in attack.

Sheffield United possible starting lineup: Ramsdale; Egan, Ampadu, Jagielka; Stevens, Lundstram, Norwood, Fleck, Osborn; McGoldrick, McBurnie
