Are Sheffield United better at home or away? This is where the Blades would be if the Championship table was based only on away results

Sheffield United's impressive away form means the Blades would maintain their fourth place spot in the Championship table if it was just based on points picked up on the road.

So far this campaign Chris Wilder's men have won half of their games on the road, picking up 12 points from eight matches.

United have won 18 points at home this season, with their current tally at 30 for the 2018/19 campaign.

In the alternative table the top four looks fairly similar with Norwich, Leeds, Middlesbrough and the Blades all occupying the top spots.

Below that there's plenty of movement, with league top scorers West Brom sliding down the standings from fifth to 14th having only won two away matches so far this campaign. 

In the table compiled by Talksport, Sheffield Wednesday would rise from 17th to 11th and Brentford would fall from 15th to 21st.

Can United keep winning on the road and climb back up the Championship table?

Here's the table in full:
