Team News: Marlon King handed Sheffield United debut

Sheffield United manager David Weir hands debuts to Marlon King and Ryan Hall for the visit of Preston North End.

Sheffield United manager David Weir has named new signing Marlon King in his starting lineup for the visit of Preston North End in League One.

The 33-year-old signed on with the Blades for the remainder of the season on Wednesday, but the veteran marksman has already been given a starting berth by Weir.

King will be partnered in attack by Febian Brandy, who returns to first-team duties after serving a three-game suspension.

The Scottish coach has also handed a debut to 25-year-old winger Ryan Hall, whom he brought to Bramall Lane on a one-month loan from Leeds United on Friday.

Meanwhile, Preston boss Simon Grayson has named an unchanged lineup to the team that beat Stevenage 3-0 last weekend, as the Lilywhites aim to pick up their first victory away to United since 1978.

Sheffield United: Long; Hill, McMahon, Collins, Doyle; Baxter, Cuvelier, Maguire, Hall; King, Brandy

Preston North End: Rudd; Laird, Wright, Clarke, Huntington; Keane, Humphrey, Byrom, Beavon, Hume; Davies
