Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Sheffield United
The Blades remain sitting at the bottom of the Premier League table and lost their previous fixture 5-0 at home to Brighton. It was the fifth time they've lost in the league by five or more goals, the joint most such defeats of any side in a single Premier League campaign (also Derby County in 2007-08). However, they did beat Wolves earlier in the campaign with a 2-1 victory at Bramall Lane, and they are looking to complete their first league double over Gary O'Neil's side since 1989-90, when they were promoted from the second tier.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Sheffield United
Wolves are in impressive form in the Premier League having five of their last eight games in the competition (D1 L2), although their two losses in this run have come in their last two matches at Molineux (v Manchester United & Brentford). The Wanderers are unbeaten in their last eight home league games against Sheffield United (W4 D4), since a 3-1 loss in the second tier in October 2002. A win could see them climb all the way up to eighth in the table, leaping over Chelsea, West Ham, and Newcastle.
