Sheffield United will host Bristol City at Bramall Lane on Tuesday in another round of the 2024-25 EFL Championship campaign. The home side have been brilliant in the league all season and are back in contention for the league title following recent slip ups from leaders Leeds United.
They picked up a narrow but largely deserved 1-0 home victory over Preston North End in their last match, with Tyrese Campbell heading home the sole goal of the game early in the second half to register his first home goal since last November. The Blades are now level on points with Leeds at the top of the pile and could leapfrog them with a win on Tuesday.
Bristol City have enjoyed a remarkable campaign and are now pushing for their first promotion playoffs appearance since the 2007-08 season. They were held to a 1-1 draw by 10-man Hull City last time out, finding themselves a goal down and a man up less than 15 minutes after kick-off before Anis Mehmeti levelled the scores from the spot in the second half.
Trending
The visitors sit seventh in the Championship with 53 points and could potentially finish the gameweek in the playoff spots should they win on Tuesday.
