Sheffield United welcome Oxford United to Bramall Road for a Championship match on Sunday lunchtime. The Blades are 15th in the table while the U’s are 23rd, so let’s take a look at this contest ahead of making a prediction.
The home side have managed to at least grab back some respectability just past the halfway point of the season after a dismal start to the campaign. They have seven wins and two draws in their last 11 games to close in on the top half.
Unbeaten in six at home, they have kept four clean sheets in that time, unfortunate not to make that five out of six when giving up an injury time goal last time out against Leicester.
It has been a real struggle for Oxford this season, losing eight of their 13 away from home, just West Brom have lost more on their travels. They were beaten 1-2 at Ipswich on New Year's Day in their most recent road game.
They have been shut out on five occasions away from home this season, so this is not going to be an easy task at a team who have been keeping things tight at the back at home.
