Sheffield United

Both sides go into this one needing to regain form if they want to stay within the Championship's play-off race.

Whereas for their opponents Sheffield United, they have been inconsistent at best of late. A draw wouldn’t do an awful lot for either side, but I can’t see the points being shared. As for QPR, they’ve been on a constant downwards spiral after having such an impressive first-half to the campaign.

Sheffield United will be hoping to bounce back with a win when they take on Queens Park Rangers in the championship on Tuesday night.

Queens Park Rangers have lost five of the last six league matches and they will be desperate to get a good result here.

Filip Uremovic could be in line for a Sheffield United debut against QPR this evening at Bramall Lane, according to Paul Heckingbottom.

Aerobically fit and it’s just a case of him getting up to speed with the Championship and building relationships with our players. Such is the nature of the playoff race, that every three points from here on in is massive. And in what is a huge game against the R’s tonight, Blades boss Heckingbottom has hinted that we could see a debut for new signing, Filip Uremovic.

The Blades are in action at Bramall Lane this evening in need of a return to winning ways.

The corner is drilled to the edge of the area and dummied by George Baldock for Norwood to hit first time through a crowded area taking a slight deflection on the way in Good build-up play down the right by United and the ball is worked across to the left for Gibbs-White who crosses with the outside of his foot for McBurnie but his header lacks power and is straight at Kieren Westwood Midfielder has a sight of goal late on but his left foot effort is comfortable for Westwood, who drops on to the ball low to his left

Sheffield United host Queens Park Rangers in the Sky Bet Championship tonight, as both clubs look to get back to winning ways after defeats at the weekend.

Warburton has opted to make five changes from the side that lost to Fulham at the weekend, as Albert Adomah and Jimmy Dunne come into a restructured defence, replacing Moses Odubajo and Dion Sanderson. Jebbison, along with Jack Robinson and Rhys Norrington-Davies, drops to the bench. Oli McBurnie leads the line, replacing Daniel Jebbison, whilst there’s a debut for Filip Uremovic and a return to the starting line-up for Enda Stevens.

United moved back into the top six and made it four clean sheets in a row with their 1-0 win against QPR.

Luton, who occupy the position above Paul Heckingbottom’s side, were unable to hold onto their lead against Peterborough which further throws open the promotion race. It keeps their push for an immediate return to the Premier League very much alive as the victory helps them into fifth. Games in hand for both Nottingham Forest and Middlesbrough in the places below means their fate isn’t quite in their own hands but, with six games left, there is plenty of time for United to strengthen their grip on a play-off place.

Sheffield United beat QPR with a 1-0 victory at Bramall Lane on Tuesday night.

Gibbs-White then missed another great chance in the final minute of the game. Rangers pressed for a leveller, but it would be United who would have the next opportunity, with Gibbs-White scuffing a low shot into the hands of Westwood from the edge. However, the fast start soon petered out as possession ebbed and flowed between the two sides, with little happening until the 74th minute when Lyndon Dykes’ delivery almost caught out Foderingham following a deflection from Egan. But the ball instead nestled on the roof of the net, much to the relief of the Blades' support.

Queens Park Rangers fell further off the pace of the Championship's play-off race, losing 1-0 to Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.

Warburton, though, might have more immediate concerns in the hours to follow. Lyndon Dykes bludgeoned a shot at Wes Foderingham’s near post and Chair clipped a free-kick into the wall, but nothing substantial presented itself. It was credit to Warburton that his substitutes proceeded QPR’s best spell of the game heading into the final quarter.

Anyone planning a nice relaxing evening watching the football at Bramall Lane made a bad choice last night.

If only Oli McBurnie’s pass had not been cut out, the second would have been just as good, and 10 minutes later. The last time they lost there, Slavisa Jokanovic was the manager. At times Sheffield United were wonderful to watch but anyone who left early was taking a huge risk. Norwood put him through with a headed pass but again the centre was cut out and there were groans as his pass for Baldock was overhit. The Blades came out reinvigorated after the break, a terrific Berge pass inside the first minute releasing Gibbs-White to put in a cross cut out by Westwood, inevitably given constant but harmless earache when in front of the Kop. It was a fair reflection of the football the Blades were playing, with Norwood and Fleck excellent in midfield, McBurnie and Gibbs-White mobile and inventive in front of them.

The Blades boss has been giving his reaction live from Bramall Lane following tonight's win over QPR.

He's a good footballer. I am a fan but it's alright being a fan of him he has to deliver players have to deliver whether they have support of manager or not they have to deliver And that's why set plays are important

Paul Heckingbottom revealed Oli McBurnie had been keen to pay for Sheffield United against Queens Park Rangers despite vomiting with a stomach bug earlier ...

I was pleased with lots of things I saw." "It gets even bigger at this business end of the season and with what's at stake. "If we'd capitalised with one of the breaks we had, for instance when Morgan went through, things would have been lot simpler but the fact it wasn't meant we had to rely on that defensive solidity. We've laid it out to him what we expect and what it's going to take for him to get there. The only frustration was that he did not have more to work off, with promising-looking through-balls just cut out or overhit and crosses failing to find their man. "He would have started at the weekend if it weren't for a thigh strain.

“The players are frustrated and angry down there. We got out more and looked to play more. All we’re focusing on is working with the players. “I thought we played well and were good value for the 1-0. In the second half we were better, but we did not show enough. All you can do is stick together and play.

Sheffield United are looking to return to the play-off picture against Queens Park Rangers. The Blades slipped down to eighth following Saturday's 1-0 ...

Team news has been confirmed and Paul Heckingbottom makes three changes to the side that lost 1-0 at Stoke on Saturday. Croatian international Filip Uremovic makes his debut, coming in for Jack Robinson with Ben Davies moving across to the left of the back three. They currently trail sixth-placed Blackburn by one point but have a better goal difference. That form has seen them drop down to ninth having been in the promotion places for much of the season and United can really turn up the heat on one of their rivals by taking all three points here.

“The Russian Premier League, where he's been captain of a really good club, it’s a little bit slower than here,” Heckingbottom added. The defender could make his second start in a United jersey against AFC Bournemouth this weekend, after Heckingbottom insisted he was substituted midway through the second period because of cramp rather than anything more serious. “If you do that here, then you’ve got someone jumping on you straight away. He’s had some really bad luck of late and he’s had to be patient. “He’s a good player and he’s a committed one as well. “I want everyone to know that, because I want people to realise just how much Oli is putting in.

Paul Heckingbottom has overseen a dramatic change at Bramall Lane - and home form could tie up a play-off spot for Sheffield United.

The Blades returned to the play-off pack following tonight's victory over Queens Park Rangers.

Very good on the ball, produced some good set-play delivery and it was his corner for Norwood's opener. Brought energy and tenacity down the right and got in behind his man on a couple of occasions. Came close to scoring too when he was on the end of a ball into the box following a corner but his effort went wide. Was as good as he has been recently, spreading play, outside of the foot passing, and picking out his team mates with some lovely balls. Final ball not good enough at times, though, and also gave away a needless free-kick right on the edge of his own area late on. In the right place to clear the danger inside his own area on a couple of occasions.

Sheffield United gave a debut to new signing Filip Uremovic last night, and the Croatian did well against QPR before coming off with cramp.

Uremovic was key to the performance. They huffed and puffed and kept the ball nicely at the back at times. It was a minor thing for Uremovic to do.

Sheffield United picked up a vital three points against QPR on Tuesday night, and one man who really impressed was Oli McBurnie.

McBurnie was efficient with his shooting too – although he only had one shot, it was on target, giving him 100% shot accuracy. No player can say they won more, with QPR’s Rob Dickie and Lyndon Dykes winning eight, while the nearest Sheffield United player was John Egan on five. The game was decided early on thanks to a well-placed finish from Ollie Norwood after John Fleck’s corner.

The Croatian international made his Blades bow in the 1-0 win over QPR at Bramall Lane last night.

He's got that experience and those mental qualities but what he has not got is that experience of the Championship and that's what I have been speaking to him about." It was a solid enough debut and having played at the highest level, his experience should prove valuable for United in the run-in. Sheffield United pounced and Heckingbottom has wasted no time in throwing him in for his Blades bow.

Six members of what might be termed Bramall Lane's old guard did the business again on Tuesday to see Sheffield United back into the play-off places.

And some bettering. Everyone assumes there will be a big shake-up in the summer whatever division United find themselves in. Maybe we have all been guilty, including here in this column, of being a touch premature.

Sheffield United currently occupy 5th place in the Championship table, and Paul Heckingbottom will be determined to take the Blades back to the Premier League ...

Sheffield United may be inclined to give him another chance given the fee they paid for him, but a summer departure could be beneficial for everyone. Here, we look at three players who may have already played their last game for the club… Sheffield United could have a busy summer ahead of them, with a number of players approaching the end of their contracts and loan men set to return to their parent clubs.
