The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Wednesday's Championship clash between Sheffield United and Blackburn Rovers, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Sheffield United 2-1 Blackburn Rovers

With the return of a few key players from suspension and injury for Blackburn, they may be able to offer a bigger attacking threat than they have demonstrated in recent weeks, which is why they could get on the scoresheet on Wednesday. However, after an impressive win on the weekend, the Blades are strong favourites for this encounter and are expected to collect three points using their momentum from a great run of results.
