Sheffield United’s impressive nine-match winning streak at home in the Championship came to a halt against Burnley on Boxing Day. However, their upcoming Sheffield United vs West Brom home fixture against West Brom presents a promising chance to return to form.
The hosts are still in the race for an automatic promotion spot, currently tied with Leeds United at 48 points. They will, however, aim to enhance their performance following the 2-0 loss to their direct promotion rivals, Burnley. Three consecutive victories prior to that defeat will serve as a significant confidence booster leading into this match. Sheffield United remain unbeaten in their last four league encounters with West Bromwich Albion.
West Bromwich Albion has a significant challenge to address as they approach this game. Recent poor results have caused them to fall out of the promotion playoff places. They enter this game positioned eighth in the standings, just a point shy of the top six. In their most recent match, West Bromwich Albion suffered a 2-1 defeat against Derby County on the road. That marked their second loss in three games. The Baggies have faced notable difficulties while playing away, arriving here without a victory in their last four away matches. Their last nine away Championship matches have yielded only one victory, and their performance in this fixture is unlikely to provide much assistance.
