We said: Blackpool 0-2 Sheffield United

 Both sides have several important players out of action for Thursday's contest, and even away from home, we can only see the Blades triumphing for a fifth straight victory. Heckingbottom's side are full of confidence and boast more quality than their visitors, and we envisage them returning home with another three-point haul. Read more.
