Steel City Derby to End All Square?

Sheffield Wednesday are one of several clubs with play-off aspirations. Danny Rohl’s men are in 11^th place, five points away from sixth. The Owls have won 14, drawn nine, and lost 14 of 37.

Sheffield United start the weekend just two points behind league leaders Leeds United. The Blades have been strong under Chris Wilder, winning 24 times. United had two points deducted before the season started, but they have shown real character to be title contenders.

Wednesday picked up a stunning victory at Norwich City in midweek. They were two goals down with 25 minutes left at Carrow Road, but late efforts from Michael Ihiekwe, Josh Windass, and Djeidi Gassama gave them a 3-2 win.

Sheffield United dropped points at home in their last match. Tyrese Campbell’s goal on the hour mark looked to have given the Blades all three points against Bristol City, but the away team rescued a point in stoppage time.

This will be the first Steel City derby at Hillsborough since March 2019. Both meetings in the 2018-19 Championship season finished goalless. Only one goal has been scored in the last four, with three ending 0-0.
