Sheffield United

Chris Wilder's team returned to the Premier League last season. It must be said that Sheffield United did not lose face in the company with the best clubs in England. Throughout the championship, the team was among the contenders for the European Cups, but at the finish line it could not withstand the pressure and in the end was only ninth. The key moment was three defeats in the final rounds from Leicester (0:2), Everton (0:1) and Southampton (1:3).

At the same time, two important points should be noted. On the home arena Sheffield United have not lost very often and have failed only once in their last seven matches, having achieved five victories during this period. Secondly, the "blades" looked very reliable throughout the season in defense. During the entire championship the team conceded only 39 goals, which is the fourth result. Only the top three teams have better performance.

The club's management did not make any significant acquisitions in the transfer market with the exception of goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale, who was bought from Bournemouth for 20.5 million pounds.

The personnel situation before the match is as follows: due to injury, Simon Moore will definitely miss the match, perhaps David McGoldrick and Sander Berge will not play as well.

Wolverhampton

“Wolves” also looked decent throughout the past season. In the national championship Nuno Espirito Santo's charges have been long among the contenders for a place in the European competition, but, like Sheffield United, they failed the ending and were only seventh leaving Tottenham ahead. In the six final rounds Wolverhampton suffered three defeats, drew once and won only two wins. Nevertheless, the “wolves” gave the sixth line only by the difference between goals scored and conceded.

It is not surprisingly that in the offseason the club's management began to strengthen just the line of attack. Wolverhampton's biggest acquisition was the signing of Porto striker Fabio Silva for which they paid ?40 mio.

We must say that last season Wolves played excellently on the rivals' fields in defense. During the entire championship, the “Wolves” conceded only 21 goals away, only Manchester United and Liverpool had fewer goals.

Honatan Castro Otto will not be able to play due to injury. Questionable is also presence of Adam Traore.
