Sheffield United’s players may well have benefited from the international break, allowing them an opportunity to get out of the goldfish bowl of defeats. However, Marco Bielsa’s side play with an attacking freedom and we expect them to outscore the Blades.

Expected Line-up: 3-5-2

Leeds United will be relishing this game as an opportunity to put another nail in the coffin of Sheffield United’s deeply disappointing campaign. Leeds have been inconsistent in their first season back in the top flight but would have taken 11th position with nine to play. The Blades remain managerless, after Chris Wilder’s departure in mid-March, and their fans can not wait for this season to be done and dusted.
Sheffield United have the worst away record in the division, picking up only four points from fourteen trips on the road.

This Yorkshire derby will pit bottom of the table Sheffield United against 11th placed Leeds who have realistic ambitions of finishing in the top 9. A defeat for the Blades will not send them down mathematically, however their fate is pretty much sealed already as they are 14 points adrift from safety. The Premier League match takes place on April 3 and the live action at Elland Road kicks off at 15:00 local time.
