Vicarage Road - Watford
Watford are unbeaten in each of their last four home league games against Sheffield United (W3 D1), keeping a clean sheet in each of those matches since losing 2-0 in January 2009.
Following a 1-0 win at Bramall Lane in September, Sheffield United are aiming to complete a league double over Watford for the first time since 2008-09 under Kevin Blackwell.
Watford were unbeaten in 15 straight home league games prior to losing to Cardiff in their final such match of 2024 (W10 D5) – the Hornets last lost two in a row at Vicarage Road in the Championship in February.
Sheffield United are unbeaten in their last 13 Championship matches played on a Saturday (W9 D4), since a 1-0 loss at home to Luton in March 2023.
Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder has never won away to former side Watford in the league, drawing 0-0 with the Blades in the Premier League in October 2019 before losing 2-1 with Middlesbrough in the Championship in August 2022.
