THE TEAM NEWS
SHEFFIELD UTD
- A home win against Arsenal and a draw at Watford and West Ham in their last three has seen the Blades move into the top half of the table.
- Chris Wilder has no new injury concerns coming into this game and he may contemplate naming the same starting eleven for this one.
- Mousset scored the vital equaliser coming off the bench last week and that may have earned the striker a starting spot in attack here.
Predicted line-up (3-5-2): Henderson; Basham, Egan, O'Connell; Baldock, Lundstram, Norwood, Fleck, Stevens; McGoldrick, Mousset

BURNLEY
- Burnley slipped to a second consecutive defeat last weekend and they uncharacteristically conceded four goals at home to Chelsea.
- Chris Wood missed the Chelsea game last week with a knock and he will face a late fitness test to assess whether he can return here.
- Barring a potential return for Wood, Sean Dyche may decide to go with the same eleven unless he brings Brady in after two assists last week.
Predicted line-up (4-4-2): Pope; Lowton, Tarkowski, Mee, Pieters; Hendrick, Cork, Westwood, McNeil; Rodriguez, Barnes
Unavailable: Drinkwater (Injured)
Doubtful: Gudmundsson (Injured), Wood (Injured)
THE PREDICTION
While Aston Villa and Norwich have been hitting the headlines for various reasons, it is Sheffield Utd of the promoted sides that are faring best right now. They will employ their usual style and approach, and with the visitors looking to shore up at the back, this could be a low-scoring stalemate.
