Key Points to Consider
Unbeaten: At the time of publication, heading into their Thursday matchup vs Newcastle, Sheffield is on a seven-match unbeaten run in the Premier League as they head into this one coming off a 1-1 draw vs Wolverhampton. 3-5-2 lineup has kept the roster competitive of late.
No Defense: Norwich is on pace with many in terms of goals scored. For example, Sheffield United has 17 goals on the season, Norwich have 16. Respectable. Comparable. But whereas Sheffield have 13 goals against, Norwich have 32. That kind of defense is a recipe for relegation.
Head-to-Head: These two sides last matched up on Jan. 26, 2019 (League Championship) when they finished in a 2-2 draw.
