Score predictions
BBC’s Mark Lawrenson: Man United 2-0 Sheffield United
“Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have not lost in the league since Arsenal won at Old Trafford on 1 November, and nothing I have seen from Sheffield United suggests they are capable of ending that run.
The Blades are back in Manchester on Saturday when they face Manchester City at Etihad Stadium, so this is not exactly an easy spell for them. At least it is only a short journey home.”
Sportsmole’s Daniel Lewis: Man United 3-0 Sheffield United
“Sheffield United fail to do well against Manchester United at the best of times, picking up only one point from their past eight top-flight meetings, and the sides’ form this season could not be more contrasting.
The Red Devils are flying high at the top, whereas the Blades are bottom, so we can only see this one ending in a straightforward home victory.”
