Chelsea Vs Sheffield United Lineup: Predicted lineups for Chelsea Vs Sheffield United

Chelsea Vs Sheffield United Lineup: Predicted lineups for Chelsea Vs Sheffield United which will happen this game-week.

Chelsea will face Sheffield United in the fourth game-week of the Premier League, as the Blades will visit the Stamford Bridge to vie for three points.

Frank Lampard would be feeling relieved after achieving his first victory with Chelsea as a manager, after failing to do so against Manchester United and Leicester City in the previous game-weeks.

Thus, with this momentum, the Blues would be expecting to land further three points from the game at home. Tammy Abraham, Christian Pulisic and Mason Mount, all are flourishing so far for Chelsea.

Although, snatching three points from Sheffield United will not be easy for the Blues, since the Blades have a concrete defence at their helm and have been impressive so far.

Moreover, with key players injured, Chelsea will face a huge problem to penetrate the Blades’ defensive setup. The newly promoted side use three-man defence, with wing-backs supporting the defenders.

Surely, Sheffield United can be considered as the dark horses of the league, as they have fetched 4 points in the three game-weeks, equal to Chelsea’s tally.

The game seems to be tough but Lampard needs to register a win on Saturday, if he wants his side to remain in the contest for the top-4 spot, with other teams slowly catching pace for it.

Chelsea have been dominant in the history shared by both the sides, as the Blues lead against the Blades in terms of head to head.

However, with Chelsea facing a rough patch, and Sheffield United being a strong opposition, chances of Chelsea dominating this time are slim. Nevertheless, it will be an exciting encounter as both the sides are meeting after 12 years.
