Sheffield United Preview – Can Sheffield Utd stop the rot?
From being one of the surprise packages of last season’s Premier League to basement dwellers of the top flight this term, football can be merciless and no-one knows that better than Sheffield United and manager Chris Wilder at the moment as The Blades have made a poor start to this new season, losing nine of their opening 10 matches so far.
Another defeat on Sunday could see the pressure intensify on Wilder whose side have picked up just the one measly point so far which came in a 1-1 draw with fellow strugglers, Fulham, but the hosts head into this upcoming clash against Leicester City on the back of a five-match losing streak.
This worrying run of results are a far cry from last season’s heroics while at Bramall Lane, Sheffield United have lost five of their last six matches and they’ve also lost their last five meetings on the trot against Leicester City too.
Leicester City Preview – Can Foxes climb back into top four?
Leicester City also seem to have gone off the boil of late as The Foxes have failed to win any of their last four matches in all competitions which includes defeats in the Premier League to Liverpool and an inexplicable 2-1 loss at home to Fulham.
A midweek loss to Zorya in the Europa League further compounded Leicester’s recent problems but the visitors won’t get a better chance to return to winning ways than this Sunday afternoon clash at Bramall Lane against a struggling Sheffield United outfit.
However, whilst Leicester have produced inconsistent results at home so far this term, they’ve been flying on the road as Brendan Rodgers’s side have won four of their five away matches to date with wins at West Brom, Manchester City, Arsenal and Leeds United.
