Sheffield United, Recent FormAny Sheffield United pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 3-1 away defeat by Stoke City. They came away from that fixture with a possession stat of 48% and clocked up 8 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Stoke City, who managed 13 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Paul Heckingbottom will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 5 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Having found the back of the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Bramall Lane, they are developing an impressive scoring record at home. With 6 clean sheets so far this season, they have one of the best shut out records in the league.
They have had a strong run of form at Bramall Lane recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 home games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Oli McBurnie will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Sheffield United's last 6 league games.
Blackpool, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 3-1 home win over Watford in their last league game, Blackpool will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They achieved 27% possession in that match and had 18 strikes at goal, with 9 hitting the target, up against Watford's tally of 10 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 5, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 7 goals and some valuable points in the process. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 4 of their last 6 matches. They are proving to be well organised on their travels, having kept 3 clean sheets in their last 6 games.
With 3 defeats and just 2 wins from their last 6 outings, this cannot be regarded as a good run of form.
Theo Corbeanu will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Sheffield United in this match, having already scored 2 goals in his last 6 away games for Blackpool.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
In their past 5 meetings, The Blades' defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 1 goal, so Blackpool will have to take their chances when they come. Sheff. Utd have managed to keep a clean sheet against Blackpool in 4 of their previous 5 meetings.
In the last 3 league matches against Blackpool, Sheff. Utd have failed to record a victory.

Blackpool manager Michael Appleton has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Keshi Anderson (Medial Collateral Ligament), Jake Beesley (Broken ankle), Lewis Fiorini (Hamstring), Kevin Stewart (Broken foot) and Rhys Williams (Shin) are all currently out of contention for this game.
