Sheffield United Preview – Will the Blades bounce back?
Sheffield United will want to get back to winning ways after a disappointing 1-0 loss at Stoke City last time out. The Blades have had minor blip in form in recent weeks, picking up just one win from their last four, suffering two losses along the way.
However, Sheffield United have been on an outstanding run of form since Paul Heckingbottom took over in November, with the 44-year-old turning United into genuine promotion contenders after a string of wins. If results go their way in midweek, Sheffield United could start the weekend in the top six.
Sheffield United have an exceptional record at Bramall Lane, winning seven and drawing two of their past nine Championship fixtures on their own patch. Can they extend that unbeaten run to ten on Tuesday?
Queens Park Rangers Preview – Can QPR end retched run?
Queens Park Rangers have been one of the Championship’s surprise packages this season. QPR have spent practically all season in and around the top six, though a poor run of results of late has seen them slip down to ninth.
The Hoops have struggled for wins in recent months, securing just two in the Championship since January. More worryingly, QPR have suffered five defeats in their last six matches. After coming from behind to win at in-form Luton Town on 13th March, the Londoners have lost three in a row.
