The Bramall Lane hosting of Barnsley in the first Yorkshire derby of 2017/18 has been given an earlier kick off following Police advice.
The game had been originally scheduled for Saturday August 19 and whilst it will continue on that day, the kick off time has been brought forward from 3pm to the 12.15pm slot.
This follows discussions between both club and South Yorkshire.
Ticket information for the game will be released closer to the date.
