Both of these sides saw their seasons get off to a good start but now find themselves out of the Championship play-off places. Sheffield United start the weekend in 8th place and five points off the top six and they host 10th placed Leeds who are a further two points behind them. United have failed to score in their last three home league games and have only won one of their last seven at home.which is a total disaster considering they won seven of their first eight league games of the season. Last week saw them lose 3-0 at league leaders Wolves and they need a win in this Yorkshire derby if they want to keep in touch with the play-off places. Leeds lost 4-1 at home to Cardiff last weekend and that ended the reign of another manager. Their new boss begins his time in charge with this tough trip to Sheffield United They have gone seven league and cup games without a win and that includes losing to League Two Newport County in the FA Cup. Goals are a problem too with none scored in their last three away league matches. This should be a tight nervy game and a bet on under 2.5 goals looks a good one.
