Sheffield United
After surviving Coventry City in the FA Cup semis, Manchester United will look to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they take on Sheffield United at their Old Trafford. The Red Devils have been involved in some high-scoring games of late and they are likely to adopt yet another attack-minded approach in Wednesday’s clash. Experienced midfielder Christian Eriksen is pushing for a start, while all Mason Mount, Jonny Evans, Scott McTominay, Luke Shaw, and Lisandro Martinez are sidelined with injuries.
The Blades, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back defeats to Brentford (0-2) and Burnley (4-1) and seeing that Man Utd players are desperate to give fans some cheer following their under-par performance against the Sky Blues, home win should be considered. Jack Robinson is a major doubt, while there are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
Highlighted Player (Marcus Rashford):
Marcus Rashford is one of the most talented English footballers. Rashford was born in Wythenshawe, Manchester on October 31, 1997 and he began his youth career at Fletcher Moss Rangers. Manchester United scouts spotted him in 2005 when he joined the famous Premier League club.
The pacey footballer, who is capable of playing as both winger and striker, marked his Manchester United first-team debut with two goals in a 5-1 crushing of Midtjylland in the Europa League.
Marcus Rashford scored seven goals in 35 appearances for the Red Devils in the 2017/2018 Premier League season. Speaking of his international debut, the Manchester United attacker played his first match for England against Australia on May 27, 2016 and he did well to find the net in a 2-1 win over the Socceroos.
After producing fine displays with Manchester United in the 2017/2018 season, Marcus Rashford was named in the 23-man England national team squad that will take part in the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Highlighted Team (Sheffield United):
Sheffield United are a professional football club that compete in the Championship. The Blades finished the 2016/2017 League One campaign in top position in the standings, with the team collecting exactly 100 points in the process. Sheffield United last competed in the Premier League in the 2006/2007 season and they were more than unfortunate not to secure the top flight survival.
The Blades finished the season in 18th place in the process and it has to be noted that they were level on points with Wigan Athletic, who managed to avoid the relegation to the English second tier. Sheffield United welcome their rivals at Bramal Lane, the stadium which was opened on April 30, 1855. The current capacity of the venue is 32.702.
The club have numerous rivalries, but the most notable one is the rivalry with their city neighbors Sheffield Wednesday. The two teams face each other in the Steel City derby and it has to be noted that United share rivalry with the likes of Barnsley, Rotherham United, Doncaster Rovers and Leeds United as well.
