Well, the good news for Blades and Owls fans is that there's nothing forecast that could put the game under threat - the prediction is that it should be mainly dry on Friday night, with a chance of some mist or fog earlier in the day and a few sunny intervals ahead of kick-off.

However, under the light cloud, it is going to be pretty cold, with temperatures around 4-6 degrees predicted around kick-off time.

And it could be a little breezy too, with wind speeds of around 7-10mph predicted during the match.

Fans travelling to the game from further afield should perhaps factor in the fog and mist - especially those heading in from the Peak District and beyond - just in case it hampers travel plans.

Bramall Lane has undersoil heating, so if were any frost or snow flurries, it shouldn't be an issue.
