Sheffield United Preview – Can Blades get off the mark?
Rock-bottom Sheffield United will be hoping it’s 13th time lucky for the hosts as they prepare for the visit of Manchester United to Bramall Lane with The Blades still going in search of their first win of this new Premier League season.
Thursday night’s hosts have picked up just the meagre one point out of the first possible 36 on offer thanks to a 1-1 draw with Fulham at Bramall Lane but the rot has well and truly set in in the following weeks as Sheffield United have lost their last seven matches on the trot.
The bigger picture now shows that last season’s revelations have since declined in dramatic fashion as The Blades have now lost 14 of their last 15 matches overall in the Premier League, and this certainly doesn’t bode well with the visit of a determined looking Manchester United outfit on Thursday night.
Manchester United Preview – Can Man Utd extend unbeaten run?
Although Manchester United occupy a disappointing 9th place on the Premier League table after a similarly lacklustre local derby with Manchester City which fizzled out into a 0-0 draw, the visitors have nevertheless extended their unbeaten run in the top flight to five matches.
United have won four of these last five with victories collected against Everton, West Brom, Southampton and West Ham respectively and the promising news for the Red Devils is that three of these four wins were achieved away from home.
Indeed, United possess the best away record currently in the Premier League with a 100% winning record on the road amidst an overall record of 5-0-0 16/7 which also includes earlier wins at Brighton and Newcastle United while the bigger picture shows that the visitors have also won their last nine away matches on the trot.
