by Steve Ashfield in Championship Predictions
It took them seven games but Sheffield United finally have points on the table. They won at the weekend but are still bottom of the Championship. Tuesday sees the Blades host Southampton who are 19th in the table. Read our match prediction below.
United lost their first six league games of the season and reappointed Chris Wilder as their head coach. Saturday saw his third spell at the club produce a 1-0 win at fellow strugglers Oxford United but they remain three points from safety.
Home form for the Blades has seen them lose all three games with just one goal scored and six conceded. Opening with a 4-1 loss to Bristol City, their subsequent two home league games have both ended in 1-0 losses with Millwall and Charlton beating them.
Southampton were relegated from the Premier League last season. The Saints aren't setting the world alight in the Championship and have only seven points from as many games. That's left them only two points above the relegation zone.
Saturday was encouraging though as they drew 1-1 at home to leaders Middlesbrough. They have gone four league matches without a win but three have been drawn. On the road they have two points from three games.
We tip under 2.5 goals in this match.
