The Sheffield United players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Fulham recently, that ended in a 3-1 defeat.  They came away from that fixture with 40% of the possession and clocked up 5 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Fulham managed 20 attempts on goal, with 6 on target.  

They have bagged 5 goals in their last 6 matches but haven't taken the points they might have hoped for, primarily due to some indecisive defending that has seen their goal breached 19 times in that period.  They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 games.  

Sheffield United will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row no wins in 8 games.

Manchester United will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-1 winners in their home fixture against Brentford.  They achieved 64% possession in that match and had 21 strikes at goal, with 8 hitting the target, up against Brentford's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.  

When it comes to attacking power Erik ten Hag will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 8 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 10 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.  

They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.  

Marcus Rashford has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Sheffield United.
