Blades vs Wolves - Form Guide

The Blades will be desperate not to lose at Bramall Lane again and will want to prove to the fans that they have learned their lesson from the defeat to Reading in showing teams too much respect. The 5 goals scored against Charlton will boost confidence all round and should see them start the match brightly. The only downside is that the Blades recent formidable defence that kept 7 clean sheets in 8 games had been breached 5 times in 3 matches since the influential Ehiogu was suspended. Kilgallon and Morgan will have to be at their best and try to keep possession instead of clearing it upfield in panic.

Wolves are a formidable force with many thinking that they wouldn't keep up the pace, but 6 wins out of 6 and an average of 2 goals per game has silenced the doubters. McCarthy's men travel to Bramall Lane full of confidence with fantastic form both at home and on the road. They still find scoring easy away from Molineux but it comes at a price as Wolves have only kept the 1 clean sheet away from home and only 3 in total all season.
