Sheffield United, Recent FormSheffield United manager Paul Heckingbottom will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 0-0 draw in his team's last league outing against Rotherham United. They came away from that fixture with 62% of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Rotherham United managed 6 attempts on goal, with 3 on target.
Heckingbottom will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They are showing great consistency at Bramall Lane in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games. Heckingbottom will have some concerns about his team's back line after only making 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home matches.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 9 games in a row.
Swansea City, Recent FormThe Swansea City squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 4-3 home defeat against Birmingham City, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 72%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Birmingham City had 14 shots on goal with 6 on target.
While they have been strong in attack with 13 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 10 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 5 of their last 6 away league games. They are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 away games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games. They've had an unusually high number of draws when playing away from home this season, with 7 draws in 15 away league games.
Having scored 5 goals in his last 6 league games for Swansea City, Joël Piroe will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Sheffield United that came out on top with a 0-1 win.
When playing at home against The Swans, Sheff. Utd have scored at least one goal for 5 games in succession. On each of the last 3 outings between Swansea and Sheff. Utd in the league, The Swans have not performed well in front of goal and have come up empty-handed in terms of goals.
Swansea have lost the last 2 times they've faced Sheff. Utd in the league and have failed to win in their last 3 encounters.
Sheff. Utd manager Paul Heckingbottom has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. George Baldock (Muscle), Rhian Brewster (Hamstring), Ciaran Clark (Hamstring), John Fleck (Calf), Rhys Norrington-Davies (Hamstring), Jack O'Connell (Knee) and Enda Stevens (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Swansea manager Russell Martin ahead of this clash, with Steven Benda (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Martin a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
