Sheffield United vs Brighton Preview

Sheffield United and Brighton are shaky in defence and neither side has much Premier League rhythm. With the sides struggling for consistency and leaking goals, a high-scorer at Bramall Lane is tipped.

Head-to-Head

Sheffield United have a 14-10 advantage against Brighton in 33 meetings with nine draws.

Sheffield United Form

Sheffield United are bottom of the Premier League and seven points from safety. The Blades have just one victory in their last eight league matches.

Chris Wilder’s side were on a two-match losing streak following defeats against Crystal Palace (3-2) and Aston Villa (5-0). But the Blades hit back with a big win over relegation rivals Luton (3-1) on Saturday.

Cameron Archer and James McAtee put Sheffield United 2-0 up at half time at Luton. The Blades conceded in the second half before Vinicius Souza netted a decisive third on 71 minutes.

Defenders Chris Basham and John Egan and midfielder George Baldock are ruled out.

Brighton Form

Brighton remain in patchy Premier League form after just two wins in their last nine matches. This inconsistency leaves Roberto De Zerbi’s outfit ninth and 12 points off the top four.

The Seagulls ended a recent three-match winless run with a 4-0 home victory over Crystal Palace. Brighton couldn’t build momentum after that win and lost their following match at Tottenham (2-1).

An early Pascal Gross goal gave Brighton the lead over Spurs. The Seagulls allowed 2.11 expected goals and conceded twice in the second half.

Brighton Injuries & Team News

Forwards João Pedro and Julio Enciso are out.

Midfield pair Solly March and James Milner are also out.

Verdict

Sheff Utd v Brighton

Sheffield United showed their goalscoring ability at Luton, while Brighton have lots of attacking quality. Neither side has a solid defence and goals can flow at both ends.
