Blackpool is going head-to-head with Sheffield United starting on 29 Dec 2022 at 20:15 UTC at Bloomfield Road stadium, Blackpool city, England. The match is a part of the Championship. Blackpool will welcome Sheffield United to Bloomfield Road for a matchday 25 fixture in the EFL Championship on Thursday.The home side will be looking to register their first win in seven games.
They come into the clash on the back of a 1-1 draw away to Hull City in a game that saw them reduced to 10 men. Sonny Carey gave them a 28th-minute lead, while Oscar Estupinan equalized in the 77th minute following Jordan Thornilay’s 53rd-minute dismissal. Sheffield United claimed a 3-1 home win over Coventry City.
James McAtee, Ciaran Clark and Thomas Doyle all scored for the Blades.The victory saw the South Yorkshire side hold onto the second spot, having garnered 47 points from 24 matches. Blackpool sit in 22nd place with 25 points to their name, two points away from safety.
Viktor Gyokeres would pull one back for their visitors with 15 minutes to go, and centre-back John Egan was then dismissed after a second yellow card, but the Blades again stood strong to pick up all three points, leaving them eight clear of third-placed Blackburn Rovers, and they will now go in search of a fifth straight league win and their 15th of the season when they travel to Bloomfield Road on Thursday.
Sheffield United are on course for automatic promotion to the Premier League. A win here would help them maintain their eight-point gap to third place and keep pace with table-toppers Burnley.Blackpool’s seven-game winless run has increased the pressure on manager Michael Appleton and another defeat could compound their hopes of avoiding the drop
Nevertheless, Sheffield United are among the most in-form teams in the league and we are backing their four-game winning run to continue with a comfortable victory.Prediction: Blackpool 0-2 Sheffield United
"Sheffield United have got their equaliser, deep, deep into added time!"

Blackpool is going head-to-head with Sheffield United starting on 29 Dec 2022.
Blackpool have an unenviable list of absentees to deal with on Thursday, as Jordan Gabriel, Kevin Stewart, Lewis Fiorini, Keshi Anderson, Liam Bridcutt and Theo Corbeanu are all expected to sit out through injuries, while defender Jordan Thorniley is suspended following his red card against Hull City.
Those absences leave the Tangerines light in midfield, and Sonny Carey and Arsenal loanee Charlie Patino will again have to play important roles, with Kenny Dougall also likely to come in from the outset after Jake Beesley and Ian Poveda were both deployed to support the front two last time out.
First bet of the day is Blackpool vs Sheffield United!

Gary Madine will lead the line against the side he helped to win promotion to the Premier League in the 2018-19 season, alongside Jerry Yates, who has notched up nine league goals so far this season.
Sheffield United will travel to Bloomfield Road without key centre-back John Egan, who is also suspended after being sent off in their victory over Coventry, and in the absence of defenders Jack Robinson, Jack O’Connell and Rhys Norrington-Davies, Chris Basham will come in from the outset to join Ciaran Clark and Anel Ahmedhodzic in a back three.
Blackpool:- Grimshaw; Connolly, Ekpiteta, Husband, Garbutt; Dougall, Patino, Carey; Beesley; Madine, Yates
Sheffield United:- Foderingham; Basham, Ahmedhodzic, Clark; Baldock, McAtee, Norwood, Doyle, Lowe; Sharp, Ndiaye
