Preview

Injuries and illness eventually took a toll on Bristol City at the weekend when Swansea hit back from a goal down to draw 1-1 at Ashton Gate.

Indeed, the Swans were coming on the stronger after Olivier Ntcham's 76th-minute equaliser, something Sheffield United will be hoping to do as they look to make it back-to-back away wins.

The Blades have had a few wobbles of late but still managed to prove masters of the late comeback to snatch priceless points off Blackpool and Norwich.

And Saturday's 2-0 win at West Brom certainly stopped the rot and showed there's not a lot wrong at Bramall Lane.

The Robins have failed to win eight of their last ten and have conceded 17 second-half goals compared to just ten in the first half of games.

Key stat

Bristol City have kept two clean sheets in their last 11 games
