Sheffield United, Recent FormSheffield United won't feel too deflated by the 2-0 away defeat to Manchester City, given that their opponents sit a full 17 places above them in the league table. In that game they had 18% possession and managed 4 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Manchester City who had 18 attempts and 4 on target.
Manager Chris Wilder will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 4 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 10 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 19 of their 20 games overall.
They have been on a bad run over their last 6 league matches, with 4 defeats and only 1 victory, so they know full well that a change of form is needed if they want to begin moving up the league table. It has been a particularly poor run of form in the league, having racked up 15 defeats in 20 games.
Goalscorer Oli McBurnie will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Sheffield United.
West Ham United, Recent FormWest Ham United were forced to settle for a share of the points in their last league match, which wound up a 0-0 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion. They came away from that fixture with a 32% share of the possession and clocked up 6 attempts on goal with 2 on target, in comparison to Brighton & Hove Albion, who managed 22 attempts on goal, 8 of which were on target.
Manager David Moyes will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. They're currenlty on a run of 4 consecutive clean sheets, and playing away from home this season, they have scored in 9 of their 10 games.
They have had a strong run of form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 4 wins along the way.
On an individual basis, Mohammed Kudus will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in West Ham United's last 6 league games.
There was no upset on the cards last time these two sides met; on that occasion, West Ham United produced a comfortable 2-0 victory.
The Hammers have managed to keep a clean sheet against Sheff. Utd in each of their previous 3 meetings. The stats show that in the last 3 meetings between Sheff. Utd and their rivals, The Hammers, the former have conceded at least one goal. In their past 5 meetings, West Ham's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so The Blades will have to take their chances when they come.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, West Ham has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Sheff. Utd in 3 games.
Sheff. Utd manager Chris Wilder has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Chris Basham (Broken leg), Tom Davies (Knee), John Egan (Calf) and Daniel Jebbison (Illness) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the West Ham manager David Moyes ahead of this clash, with Michail Antonio (Knee) missing out, which gives Moyes a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
