On Saturday afternoon, Sheffield United and Wolves go head-to-head at Bramall Lane as the home team looks to end a woeful recent run of form in the Premier League.
The Blades have endured a difficult return to the English top flight, to say the least, as the Yorkshire outfit currently sits bottom of the table after claiming just one point from their opening ten Premier League matches.

A 5-0 defeat at Arsenal in their last league outing was their sixth straight loss in the Premier League.
The game also saw them concede at least two goals for the ninth consecutive game in the English top flight.
Their only point of the Premier League campaign came at Bramall Lane against Everton in a 2-2 draw in September.
Paul Heckingbottom’s team has lost the four other home matches in the English top-flight this season.
The team from the Midlands form has improved in recent weeks as a 2-2 home draw with Newcastle in their last Premier League outing means that they are unbeaten in five league games.
Gary O’Neil’s team has been relatively prolific in front of goal of late, as they have now scored at least two goals in three of their previous four matches in the English top flight.
The recent results have moved the visitors up to 12th place in the Premier League table, seven points clear of the relegation zone.
Wolves have been poor travellers lately in the English top flight, winning just two of their last 13 away games in the Premier League.
However, they have taken four points from the previous two away matches in the English top-flight from games at Luton Town and Bournemouth.
Forebet predicts that Wolves will add to the home side's recent woes by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
