Following relegation from the Premier League in the 2020-21 season, Sheffield United lost out on a return to England's top flight in the semi-finals of the play-offs last season, but have a good chance of gaining promotion this time around.

Meanwhile, the hosts began the season slowly but have improved significantly in recent weeks, going without defeat in each of their last three league matches. Coupled with their good record against the visitors, they cannot be written off when it comes to taking something from this match.
