Sheffield United, Recent FormLast time out, Sheffield United went away feeling content after the match with a 2-0 away win against Burnley. They came away from that fixture with a possession stat of 42% and clocked up 15 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Preston North End, who managed 18 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Paul Heckingbottom will be delighted with his team's performances recently, with them having scored 13 goals in their last 6 games whilst conceding only 1. With 5 clean sheets in their last 6 home games, they are proving tough to beat at Bramall Lane. Few teams have managed to keep The Blades away from their goal, having scored in all but 1 of their games this season.
They've had a good run of home form recently, with 6 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 6 games.
When it comes to home matches at Bramall Lane, Iliman Ndiaye will be feeling confident about finding the net again, with 6 league goals for Sheffield United in their last 6 home games.
Birmingham City, Recent FormWith a 0-0 draw in their last match against Coventry City, Birmingham City had to settle for a share of the points. During that encounter they recorded 48% of the possession and had 12 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents managed to hit 3 of their 13 shots on goal.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. This season they have struggled with consistency in front of goal, failing to score in 5 of their 10 league games.
This will be regarded as a poor run of form, with 3 defeats from their last 6 matches and just 2 victories.
On an individual basis, Scott Hogan will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Birmingham City's last 6 league games.
The last meeting between these 2 teams in the league resulted in an unsurprising 1-2 win for Sheffield United.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at Bramall Lane, Sheff. Utd have been unable to break through the visitor's defence and find the back of the net. In each of the previous 3 matches against The Blues, Sheff. Utd have let in at least one goal. The Blades have struggled for goals when Birmingham comes to visit Bramall Lane, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
In the league, Sheff. Utd has not won any of the last 3 times they have welcomed Birmingham to Bramall Lane.
Sheff. Utd manager Paul Heckingbottom has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Jayden Bogle (Knee), Ciaran Clark (Muscle), Adam Davies (Knee), John Fleck (Broken leg), Max Lowe (Hamstring), Jack O'Connell (Knee), Ben Osborn (Ankle), Jack Robinson (Knee) and Enda Stevens (Knock) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Birmingham manager John Eustace has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Harlee Dean (Leg), Nico Gordon (Leg) and Przemysław Płacheta (Ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
