The season is still fairly new and the Premier League table has to be read with caution. So far Sheffield United find themselves in 17th position and Leeds United are placed 10th.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Sheffield United form and stats

The home fans saw their team lose the first Premier League game of the season here at Bramall Lane. Last season these fans witnessed 10 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses from Sheffield United's 19 home games.

Stress levels are on the rise for Sheffield's attacking players as they have now played 244 minutes without scoring in a league game. J. Lundstram was their last goal scorer.

Sheffield United lost their last game at Aston Villa (placed 9th) after a 0-1 scoreline. A 1-1 draw away in the Carabao Cup before that, with Burnley (after extra-time, 5-4 on penalties) the opponent.

Some supporters pointed their nail-bitten fingers at John Lundstram for missing a penalty kick versus Aston Villa in the 34th minute. It's possible that a goal in that situation would have changed the outcome.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Sheffield United at home in the league. 0 on target and 2 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.

Leeds United form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the Premier League ended in defeat. Last season Leeds United had these away match statistics: Played 23; won 13, drew 4 and lost 6.

Leeds won their last game, 4-3 versus Fulham played at home. Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Hull City (after extra-time, 8-9 on penalties).

As you can tell from the result, the match against Fulham was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?

Leeds United have the goal stats of 3-4 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last eight matches): Sheffield four wins, two draws and Leeds United two victories. As for goals, two matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), six games had two or less.
