Sheffield United and Southampton face off this Tuesday at the Bramall Lane in EFL Championship.
Sheffield United currently have 3 points and lie in 24th position. In their last match, Chris Wilder's team prevailed 0-1 against Oxford United (EFL Championship 2025/26).
Southampton currently have 7 points and lie in 19th position. In their last fixture, Will Still's team shared the spoils 1-1 with Middlesbrough (EFL Championship 2025/26).
The last meeting between the two teams ended in a 2-2 draw.
Theo (Allthingsblades): After 7 games United have finally have points on the board after a hard fought victory away at Oxford thanks to a Callum OHare winner. The Blades face their second of three games in the space of seven days and host Southampton who have also had an underwhelming start to life back in the Championship. Chris Wilder will be looking to build momentum from Saturday and hopefully register back to back wins after going so long without one. I think it will once again be a close game but Gus Hamer is due a goal and i think he will be the difference as he was for so much of last season. 1-0 Blades.
Prediction: 1-0
