Pick of the stats: Sheffield United v Wolves
- Published
Promotion favourites Wolves will aim to end a two-game winless run in the Championship when they visit Sheffield United on Sunday (12:00 BST).
Cesar Peixoto's side have dropped from second to 11th before the weekend's fixtures after a 4-2 defeat at West Ham and 2-2 draw with Birmingham.
The Blades picked up their first two league wins of the season in the space of a week against Bolton and Blackburn, with a 3-1 home loss to Norwich City sandwiched in between.
Sheffield United have won three of their past four home league games against Wolves (L1), most recently a 2-1 Premier League win in November 2023.
Wolves have won three of their past four league matches against Sheffield United (L1), keeping a clean sheet in all three wins in this period.
Sheffield United have both scored and conceded in 14 of their previous 15 Championship games at Bramall Lane, the exception being their 0-0 draw with Birmingham in August.
Wolves' three away games in the Championship this season have all had at least four goals (7 for, 7 against). Indeed, they are just the third Championship side since 2004-05 to both score and concede 7+ goals in their first three away games of a season, along with Crewe in 2004-05 (7F 7A) and Blackburn in 2012-13 (9F 7A).
Sheffield United have faced the most shots of any side in the Championship this season (103), while they've recorded the fourth-highest non-penalty xGA (10.15).
