It is only the one loss that the Blades have suffered in their last ten league games now (W4 D5).

Brighton vs Sheffield United Predictions

Brighton To win: The Seagulls have been a little unlucky not to have put more points on the board in their recent run of unbeaten form. They are looking more confident and have played some good stuff. The Blades will continue to be a tough side to beat, but a three-match winning streak may be out of their reach.
