Sheffield United: This is the Blades' record when they have been live on Sky this season

The Blades have already had seven matches shown on Sky Sports this campaign, and it's been a mixed bag of results.

So far United have a record of one win, three draws and three defeats when they've been shown live on tv or on the red button services.

Chris Wilder's men featured on tv for the opening match of the season against Swansea City '“ a 2-1 defeat at Bramall Lane after the Swans came back from one down through goals from Oliver McBurnie and Yan Dhanda.

The 1-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest and the goalless draw in the Sheffield derby just before the international break were also shown on Sky.
