Sheffield United are back at Bramall Lane on Friday afternoon as they look to start their Easter weekend with another win. The Blades take on bottom of the table Wigan Athletic as they look to build on their 1-0 away victory at Norwich City last time out.

Their win at Carrow Road was made even more crucial by the fact 3rd position Middlesbrough were thumped 4-2 away at Huddersfield Town. Paul Heckingbottom’s side are now six points above their rivals ahead of some important fixtures.
