Goal-Keeper
While West Brom were written off in each of their last two matches, the club still managed to stun everyone despite their defeats. The club lost by only the one goal margin in those encounters, a scoreline purely given birth to by Sam Johnstone’s hoard of saves.
Defenders
On a four match losing spin, Sheffield United’s main predicament this season has been a lack of defensive acumen. The sound and compact brand of defending they deployed last season saw the club make massive strides, a lack of which has had a clear and telling effect on the club.
Its what makes today’s tie against West Brom all the more crucial. Sheffield United are up against a side which has failed to score in four of its last five outings, a club Sheffield United will be well aware that they can easily pull off a cleansheet against.
It will see us opt for a trio from the side, one constituting of George Baldock, Max Lowe and John Egan from the club. Conor Townsend is our pick from the home side with Sheffield United themselves having gone without a goal in two of their last three encounters.
Midfielders
For all of the attacking plights these two clubs are encountering this season, today’s clash comes across as a pristine opportunity for either side to pile on the goals. Both the defences have shipped in goals at will, paper thin backlines which can easily crumble under the brunt of attacking pressure once again.
It sees us make Sander Berge from the visiting team the first pick for the day with him having recorded the one goal and assist. John Fleck will be his partner for the outing, a player who has the ability to send down well positioned crosses and passes in lethal goal scoring areas.
The top assist provider for West Brom, Matheus Pereira lines up as the first pick from West Brom. Grady Diangana who has the one goal gives him company with Conor Gallagher’s solid start to life at the club seeing him complete the trio from the side.
Strikers
Sheffield United’s top scorer with the two goals, David McGoldrick was an instant pick for us.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Captain will be Baldock while vice will be Berge.
