Sheffield was just minutes away from their first win of the season last round. The Blades played against Brighton. Despite the fact that the seagulls were considered the clear favorites, Wilder’s wards managed to open an account being in the minority, while they were leading up to the 87th minute. The final result is 1:1. This is only the second draw for the team in the current championship. In other meetings defeats were recorded. In addition, Sheffield has scored just 8 goals in the current Premier League season, thats one of the worst scoring goals in England. Today, having 2 points on the account, Wilder’s team has only 2 points on the balance sheet, and, logically, is in last place in the standings. At home Sheffield has drawn only 1 draw in the 5th round of the championship. In the remaining 7 matches only defeats were recorded. 4 goals are scored, 11 goals are conceded. Sander Berge and John Lundstram will not appear on the field this weekend. Lys Mousse is still in question.
It was Chelsea who beat today’s rival in the Europa League final a year ago. This was their second trophy in this tournament. Six times the Blues won the championship and eight the FA Cup, but in the last tournament they were content with only fourth place, which brought them a ticket to the group stage of the Champions League, where the capitals advanced to the playoffs from the first place, being ahead of Sevilla and Krasnodar. Be that as it may, Frank Lampard is a sin to complain about the lack of quality performers, on whom, even in the last transfer pause, were spent almost 200 million euros. The start of the Premier League tournament for the pensioners was not very successful, but after 14 rounds the blues ended up in fifth position. Guests have seven wins and four draws. In December the team defeated Leeds (3:1), followed by a fiasco twice in duels with Everton (0:1) and Wolverhampton (1:2). On Monday, Roman Abramovich’s team defeated West Ham (3:0), for which we made a prediction. Chilwell, James and Ziyech will not be able to take part in the game today.
