Blades v Eagles

I feel we're playing The Blades every second week, either with the first team or the youths, and yet again we face them away from home. We managed to get a 2-1 win in the league while we lost 1-0 at home to The Blades in the cup. This is a game we have to win if we want to get through the group stages. The Blades sit top of the table with three straight wins while we've won 1 out of 3. We're still without Jairo Riedewald and it's a big blow for us defensively. Our performance must improve and we need to tighten it at the back. We got good offensive players to get ourselves on the scoresheet so it's all down how we manage to defend as a team.

Sheffield Utd v Crystal Palace

Yes have to agree @Eduardo it does seem we are playing Palace a good bit just lately.
Obviously we want to win but we have only just got our first win in the league while in cups everything seems to turn to gold. I am under no illusion that we have had our share of luck so far but over the few weeks been caretaking I have tried to sort em out a bit with transfers and a loan and hopefully thay have improved and can show it by continuing our cup form.
We have no injuries or suspensions and looking at the sides there is not much between us, so it should be a close one and could go either way.

QPR vs Wolves

Getting to crunch time in this one as we now have 3 successive away games. A win in this one would either send us joint top of the pile or five or six points clear of third with two games left. If we do get the win i'd prefer the latter but doing our bit is the key factor,

We have beaten QPR twice already this season but they have been at home and we now have to do it on the road. However our away form has been good with 4-1 and 3-1 wins in our two away matches so far which will give us confidence heading into this one

We are at full strength whilst they will be missing Murray in midfield. But they have the dangerous Bradley and Kudus in their team who we know can cause us problems. It's a tricky game but one with big rewards if we can get the victory
