The Premier League's bottom two will meet at Bramall Lane today as Sheffield United host Fulham.
Both clubs are off to dismal starts to the season, losing each of their opening four games, and are already looking at a fight to stay in the top flight.
Fulham's defensive woes have cost them dear with 11 goals conceded, and Scott Parker will be hoping that some late additions in the transfer window can have an immediate impact.
The Blades, meanwhile, have found their woes to be at the other end of the pitch, with David McGoldrick's consolation effort against Arsenal the only League goal they have mustered so far this season.
Date, time and venue
Sheffield United vs Fulham is scheduled for a 12:00pm BST kick-off today on Sunday, October 18.
The match will be behind closed doors at Bramall Lane with no fans due to be present due to government guidelines regarding coronavirus.
How to watch
TV channel: The match will be shown live via pay-per-view on BT Sport Box Office at a cost of £14.95.
