Sheffield United can go top of the Championship if they win this match. They are second in the table, two points behind visitors Leeds United. Can the Blades get a 23rd league win of the season? Read our match prediction.
The home side are two points clear of third-placed Burnley and this is their game in hand. They have won their last four league games with seven goals scored. Three of their last four at home have been won but the other saw them lose 3-0 to relegation-threatened Hull CIty.
The reverse fixture against Leeds ended in a 2-0 away defeat in October.
Leeds United will take a huge step towards returning to the Premier League if they can win this match. Monday saw them come-from-behind to beat fourth-placed Sunderland at home. That made it four successive league wins by an aggregate score of 15-1.
The Whites are unbeaten in their last 15 league matches with their last defeat being in November. They're not quite on the level of Burnley (no goals conceded in their last 11 league matches) but Leeds have kept five clean sheets in their last six away matches in the Championship. We tip them to beat Sheffield United to stay top of the table.
