With Preston North End, an absolute traditional club is now guesting in South Yorkshire. The Lilywhites also found their way back to their old strength after a bad start and got seven out of nine possible points from the last three games. Nevertheless, in the run-up to the clash between Sheffield United and Preston, the odds are in the direction of the Blades.

Preston has only lost three of the last eleven league games and is now looking to expand the latest streak at Bramall Lane. In fact, the Blades, whose roster still has a lot of quality, are among the potential candidates for promotion, which is why the task should be difficult for the Lilywhites.

Recently, however, it has been very quiet about the traditional club, which has only played first-class for one year (2006/07) since relegation from the Premier League in 1994, before returning to the English football club under Chris Wilder in the summer of 2019.

Initially five league games in a row without a win

After a desolate season in which 29 of the 38 league games were lost, Sheffield was now relegated back to the championship. Slavisa Jokanovic is the name of the new coach, who should now return to the Premier League as soon as possible. For this, the 53-year-old can fall back on many top performers from the previous season, who could be retained.

It was all the more surprising that the blades initially did not want to make it into the second division and only got two points from their first five league games. In the first game after the international break, however, the knot burst emphatically.

Confirm the trend reversal even without McBurnie and Berge?


The men from South Yorkshire cleared Petersborough United 6-2. So that the tip on the Blades' home win against Preston also works out at Sheffield United, the offensive must tie in exactly with this appearance. In the five league games before this runaway victory, the attack always marked a maximum of one goal.

The problem is that attacker Oliver McBurnie is still out with a broken metatarsus, while Sander Berge is also missing the clearer in the defensive midfield. Ultimately, there is still enough quality in the relegated squad, which has also been reinforced with high quality, to confirm the latest turnaround.
