Match Preview
Sheffield United travel to Deepdale to face Preston North End in the EFL Championship, with Chris Wilder's side arriving in Lancashire off the back of a confidence-boosting win.
The Blades beat Wrexham 1-0 at Bramall Lane in their most recent outing, with Ben Brereton Diaz's close-range finish securing a fifth league win of the season. That result lifted United to 10th in the Championship table, just a point outside the play-off places.
Preston arrive at this fixture in a far more troubled state. Graham Alexander's side have lost four of their last five Championship games and sit bottom of the table, making this a match they desperately need to turn around.
The hosts were beaten 4-1 by Wrexham earlier in the season and have conceded heavily in recent weeks, shipping goals at an alarming rate across their losing run. A home crowd at Deepdale will be hoping for a reaction.
Wilder's men, by contrast, are building momentum. Three games unbeaten and climbing the table, United will see this as a chance to push into the top six and apply genuine pressure on the play-off spots.
