Rhian Brewster (Τραυματισμός στο μίσχο), Chris Basham (Τραυματισμός στο πόδι) and John Egan (Τραυματισμός στο πόδι) aren’t available for Sheffield United gaffer Paul Heckingbottom.
We think that The Blades will probably employ a 3-5-2 formation in the match with Wesley Foderingham, Jack Robinson, Auston Trusty, Anel Ahmedhodzic, Jayden Bogle, Gustavo Hamer, Vinicius Souza, James McAtee, Luke Thomas, Oliver McBurnie and Cameron Archer.

Coming into this contest, Sheffield United have not won at home in their last 4 matches in the league. Their supporters are understandably frustrated.

Indicating their bias toward eventful matches, we’ve seen goals 20 times in the previous six games in which Manchester United have taken to the pitch, yielding a mean average of 3.33 goals for each fixture. Opposing teams have hit 9 of these goals. With no two games being the same, we will just have to wait and see if that pattern might be replicated in this next game or not.
Coming into this contest, Manchester United remain undefeated by Sheffield United when they have played them away from home in the previous 4 league matches. A very decent away record against them.
Banker tip: Over 1.5 goals
Advantage tip: Manchester United to win
