Brighton v Sheffield United: match preview

Brighton v Sheffield United
Brighton v Sheffield United: probable starters in bold, contenders in light Illustration: x

Sheffield United lost by a single goal yet again on Thursday as they lost a nightmarish eighth match in succession. Maybe Brighton are the team they can finally topple to end that horrific run as Graham Potter’s side are struggling for goals, with two in their past four matches while failing to win any of them. Confidence will likely be in desperately short supply on the team bus to the Amex and Potter will be hoping to guide his side to a much-needed win to stay above danger before facing high-flying West Ham.
