Sheffield United v Brighton: match preview

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

Sheffield United face Brighton now officially relegated after appearing checked out on this campaign for some time. Graham Potter would surely still have been confident of a positive result if United were still fighting but now his side should have a very good chance of taking an important three points as they look to glide above a relegation dogfight. Never say never and all that but Brighton were brilliant in grinding a draw out of Chelsea and look set to improve next season if they can hold on to Potter. Graham Searles
