Sheffield United Preview – Can Blades extend run?
Sheffield United bring a solid looking unbeaten run of eight games in the Championship into this upcoming clash against Blackburn Rovers when the two teams face off at Bramall Lane with both teams keen upon boosting their promotion chances.
Five wins out of these last eight games have helped lift Sheffield United up into 6th place and the play-off pack prior to these midweek fixtures and having lost just once ion their last 14 matches overall, The Blades look in a fairly strong position here.
Sheffield United are unbeaten in their last six home games and the hosts have kept clean sheets in each of these six games as well.
Blackburn Rovers Preview – Can Rovers return to winning ways?
Blackburn’s previous promising run in the Championship which saw the visitors put together an impressive 10-match unbeaten run in the second tier has seemingly deserted Tony Mowbray’s side in recent weeks as Rovers are without a win in four matches.
Losses to Swansea City and Nottingham Forest have been in between draws with Luton Town and West Brom while also failing to win any of their last four games away from home too, so the visitors have seen their automatic promotion hopes fade in the past few weeks – in addition, 12 of Blackburn’s 16 away games have also seen under 2.5 goals.
