Just over seven months after Newcastle United drubbed Sheffield United 8-0 in a Premier League fixture at Bramall Lane, the Magpies are set to welcome the bottom-placed side to St. James' Park on Saturday.
In the race for a spot in Europe next season, Eddie Howe's men are three points off sixth-placed Manchester United following a 2-0 loss at Crystal Palace in the mid-week.
Meanwhile, in an unlikely bid to save themselves from relegation, the Blades extended their winless run to 10 games after suffering a 4-2 defeat at Old Trafford the last time out.
Here, GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
