Can United Secure First Away Win Since Mid-March?

It has been a miserable season for Stoke, but the Potters should live to fight another day in the Championship. With two games to play, Mark Robins’ side are four points above the drop zone in 17^th.

Sheffield United’s top-two hopes ended on Monday, losing 2-1 to Burnley at Turf Moor. Nevertheless, it has been a great season for the Blades, who started the campaign with a points deduction. Even though their play-off record is poor, United will fancy their chances of going up.

After five games unbeaten (three wins, two draws), Stoke would have been quietly optimistic before a ball was kicked at Elland Road on Monday. However, City crashed to an embarrassing 6-0 defeat against a rampant Leeds United.

Sheffield United’s form has slumped, with Monday’s loss to Burnley being their fourth defeat in five Championship matches. Wilder will want six points from the last two to take into the play-offs.
