Derby vs Sheffield United Lineups, Preview, and Team Information

Derby

It has been a rough few years for Derby who have been on the market for some time with plenty of possible bids failing to materialize. The team is in financial trouble and it seems that things are not getting much better in that department. A few new players were arriving this summer, but all of them were on free transfers. Curtis Nelson, Callum Elder, Joe Ward, and Sonny Bradley are some of those players who should give the manager Paul Warne some options going forward into the new season.

Provisional lineup: Vickers, Cashin, Nelson, Elder, Wilson, Thompson, Hourihane, Ward, Barkhuizen, Washington, Collins.

Sheffield United

It will be curious to see how Sheffield United progresses in their return to the Premier League. Even though the club earned a windfall by being promoted to the Premiership, that fact hasn't been shown in their transfer market action. Benie Traore and Anis Slimane are the newest additions to the team and, interestingly, both have come along from Northern Europe. Traore was brought in from Swedish champions Hacken while Slimane was with Danish club Brondby for the last few years. The fans of the club are used to seeing their club relegated in quick succession, but the hope is that this time around it will be different.

Provisional lineup: Foderingham, Ahmedhodzic, Basham, Lowe, Bogle, Slimane, Berge, Fleck, Coulibaly, Ndiaye, Traore.

Player to Watch: Anis Slimane

One of a few significant summer signings for Sheffield United this preseason, Anis Slimane is an exciting talent that was born in Copenhagen, raised in Denmark, but with his Tunisian roots, decided to represent the country of his parent's origin. Even though he is only 22 years old, Slimane already has 29 caps for Tunisia national team while scoring four goals.

Danish clubs have been developing young talents from Africa in the past decade and that kind of dedication has started to come with positive results. There are plenty of examples and Slimane is one of them. He has made 121 appearances for Brondby scoring nine goals and delivering 12 assists.

Starting lineups

Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
