National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Wolverhampton Wanderers or Sheffield United that keep their silverware dream alive.

Moutinho scored one goal, hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 52 successful passes (of 60 total).

Sheffield United form and stats
Sheffield United's mission in FA Cup last season failed in the quarter-finals.5 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses. That’s the product of Sheffield United playing as the away team in the Championship this season.
Two travels in a row for Sheffield, whose manager Heckingbottom could celebrate last time after the Championship win against Fulham. Midfield player Norwood was the top player of the team with a match rating of 7.44/10. Norwood served one assist and hit one key pass.
Ahead of that match was the victory versus Cardiff City at their stadium, the result 3-2.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Sheffield playing away, we found one game.
