Sheffield United v Wolves: match preview

Last season’s meetings between these two clubs were very tight and the outcome of this one may well depend on which side has recharged better from impressive and draining campaigns. Wolves have had a shorter rest and no pre-season matches, and their new signings have had little time to integrate so they may not start. Having lost both his first-choice full-backs from last season for this game – Jonny is injured and Matt Doherty has gone to Tottenham – Nuno Espírito Santo will be hoping that Adama Traoré, in particular, ensures that Sheffield United’s wide players have to spend most of their time going backwards. Attack certainly seems the best policy for the hosts, especially as United will be giving a debut to a new goalkeeper, Aaron Ramsdale. Paul Doyle
