Sheffield Utd’s chances of maintaining their Premier League status are looking increasingly non-existent. The club are now seven points from safety, having only won twice in more than 20 games. It’s a record that suggests an immediate return to the Championship is a near-certainty. But a strong FA Cup campaign could be just the tonic needed to keep the club’s fanbase onside, so don’t expect Sheffield Utd to roll over as they welcome fellow EPL team Brighton to Bramall Lane.
Meanwhile, Brighton are enjoying another high-flying season. The South Coast club are currently in 7th, and while only a single win in their last five games suggests they may not have it in them to compete for a spot in the illustrious Premier League top four, the Seagulls remain on an upward trajectory. After cruising past Championship side Stoke in the previous round, Brighton will be eying up a deep run in the FA Cup to add some gloss to what is shaping up to be a pretty solid season.
The Sheffield Utd vs Brighton live stream might not be the most exciting match in the FA Cup 4th round, but both teams will be eager to progress so you can expect a high-intensity game. We’ve got all the details you need to watch online from anywhere down below.
