Manchester United vs Sheffield United: Premier League match preview and live updates
Match preview
Manchester United will be looking to get back to winning ways when they host Sheffield United in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
The Red Devils have endured a torrid time of late, losing their last three league games and slipping down to eighth in the table. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side is now 12 points behind leaders Liverpool, and their hopes of finishing in the top four are hanging by a thread.
Sheffield United, meanwhile, are enjoying a resurgence under Chris Wilder. The Blades have won their last three league games and are now up to seventh in the table. Wilder's side is just three points behind United, and they will be confident of causing an upset at Old Trafford.
Team news
United will be without the suspended Paul Pogba for this match. The Frenchman was sent off in the Red Devils' defeat to Burnley last weekend.
David de Gea, Nemanja Matic, and Luke Shaw are all doubts for the game through injury.
Sheffield United will be without the injured John Fleck and Jack Robinson for this match.
Prediction
This is a tough match to call, but I think Manchester United will just edge it.
The Red Devils are still a world-class team, and they will be desperate to get back to winning ways.
Sheffield United are a dangerous side, but I don't think they have enough quality to beat United at Old Trafford.
