The Blades go into the game having claimed a big win in the capital against West Ham United. Thomas Repka put through his own net to open the scoring whist Leigh Bromby's stunning 18 yard thunderbolt secured the points for the visitors.
United though will have to do it without captain Chris Morgan who picked up his fifth booking of the season and will be suspended, Phil Jagielka should take up the captaincy for this game.
Warnock has several options available, one of which could be to revert back to a flat back four, with midfielder Paul Thirlwell returning to the starting line-up.
"We don't have any new injuries and I have a virtually full squad to choose from," said Neil. "We had an horrendous few weeks with injuries earlier in the season, so I'm pleased it has now calmed down a bit.
"We have a number of smashing lads on the bench. They are all trying to fight there way into the team, such as Paul Thirlwell, Alan Wright, Simon Francis and Chris Montgomery. They have been patient, worked hard in training and I'm sure they will get their chance."
The Blades boss also gave an update on the progress of strikers Steve Kabba and Ashley Ward.
He said: "Both Steve and Ashley are about two to three weeks away from playing a game. Obviously they can still have a setback, but it would be a massive boost for us if they can get fit. Their addition to the strike-force would be a big plus."
