Team News

Sheff Utd
Newcastle
  • Sheffield United could be without as many as 12 players for Sunday's match against Newcastle, though the majority of sidelined players are only days away from returning to fitness.
  • Oliver McBurnie will miss this one after being sent off in last weekend's loss at Tottenham.
  • Newcastle will be without Joelinton for this clash; the Brazilian faces a spell on the sidelines with a knee injury.
  • Emil Krafth, Joe Willock and Javier Manquillo are edging closer to returns from injury.

Prediction

  • Sheffield United dropped all three points at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last weekend deep into stoppage time, with Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski scoring after 98 and 100 minutes respectively.
  • The Blades remain on just one point and are yet to pick up a win on their return to the top-flight. They sit 17th heading into this one.
  • Newcastle got back to winning ways at home to Brentford last time out, after three successive Premier League defeats.
  • Eddie Howe's side are now up to 12th, on six points.
  • The last time the sides met, two seasons ago, Sheffield United came out on top in this fixture with a 1-0 victory.
  • On this occasion, however, the away side should have far too much quality and seal all three points.
