The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Wednesday's Championship clash between Sheffield United and Blackburn Rovers, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Sheffield United 2-1 Blackburn Rovers

With the return of a few key players from suspension and injury for Blackburn, they may be able to offer a bigger attacking threat than they have demonstrated in recent weeks, which is why they could get on the scoresheet on Wednesday.
