Plymouth vs Sheffield Utd

Plymouth have lost seven of their last eight meetings with Sheffield United in all competitions (D1) since a 1-0 Championship win in November 2007. The Pilgrims have lost each of their last five matches against the Blades in a row.

This will be Sheffield United’s first away league game at Plymouth since a 1-0 win in December 2009; only in February 1950 have they ever won successive league visits against them.

Plymouth have won three of their last six home league games (D1 L2), just one fewer than their first 14 of the season beforehand (W4 D6 L4).

Sheffield United have lost both of their last two league games, but haven’t lost three in a row outside of the Premier League since December 2017.

Against Millwall last time out, Sheffield United had 25 shots, their most in a single league match since November 2022 against Burnley (28), and their most on Opta’s records (from 2013-14) in a league game in which the Blades failed to score.
