The 28-year-old and fellow goalkeeper Ian Bennett had to be patient as understudies to Paddy Kenny last season, but Haber will start when Kevin Blackwell's side take on his former club Floriana at the Hibernians Stadium. Haber said: "I've always been very proud to wear a Sheffield United shirt and naturally doing that against my former club will be a very proud moment for me. I hope it will be followed by many more. "Playing at the stadium won't be new for me. I have trained and played there on many occasions, including for the Malta Under-21 team." The Malta international, who arrived at Bramall Lane from Haidari in July 2008, hopes to seize his chance following Kenny's suspension due to a failed drugs test.
