Team News

Sheff Utd
Stoke
  • Vinicius Souza served his suspension in midweek and will return to the starting XI, although Gustavo Hamer is now unavailable after picking up his fifth yellow card of the campaign.
  • Chris Wilder could also recall Andre Brooks with Rhian Brewster dropping out of the starting XI.
  • Narcis Pelach expects to welcome back defensive midfielder Wouter Burger after he missed the game against Bristol City with an injury.
  • Sam Gallagher is a doubt, while three players are confirmed to be sidelined for Saturday's away fixture.

Prediction

  • Sheffield United headed into gameweek 10 as the Championship's only unbeaten team, but two matches later their confidence has been knocked dramatically following back-to-back defeats.
  • The Blades were beaten 1-0 by Middlesbrough on Wednesday night and have been second-best in all departments in their last two fixtures.
  • Stoke raced into an early 2-0 lead on Tuesday night thanks to goals from midfield duo Lewis Koumas and Andrew Moran, but the Potters conceded twice in the space of three second-half minutes as they were pegged back by Bristol City.
  • Narcis Pelach's side are unbeaten in four league outings but have drawn three in a row ahead of their visit to Bramall Lane.
