Rotherham United, Recent FormRotherham United will have been reasonably pleased with their 1-1 draw against Watford, not least because of the valuable point gained. Their share of possession in that meeting was 41%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target, in contrast to Watford, who had 18 shots on goal with 5 on target.
Matt Taylor will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 11 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games. It's been rare for their fans not to have had something to shout about this season, with their team scoring in 12 out of 13 home games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Sheffield United, Recent FormHaving secured a 1-0 home win against Hull City in their latest league match, Sheffield United will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. In that game they recorded 48 of the possession, with 13 attempts on goal, 5 on target. Their opponents found the target on 2 of their 10 shots on goal.
Manager Paul Heckingbottom will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 12 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. Having failed to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches, they definitely have some defensive problems to resolve at the moment. Based on their impressive scoring record, which includes goals in 12 of their away matches this season, their travelling support will feel confident of getting a good result on the road.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 8 games in a row.
On an individual basis, John Egan has scored in each of Sheffield United's last league game away from home.
