What they’re saying ahead of Southampton – Sheffield United

Kyle Walker-Peters on how he’s grown under Saints boss Ralph Hasenhuttl: “Massively. The way he wants us to play is very intense, high energy and that suits me really well. I am in a team where it really complements me, so for that reason I am improving every game and I feel like I am confident every game and hopefully that continues.”

Sheffield United boss Chris Wilder on reversing their fortunes: “We’ve just got to carry on working hard, carry on believing and if we do that — continue to put everything in — then I’m sure things will turn for us. Yes, there’s things we can do better and yes, we have got to look at ourselves. We’re not ignoring that and we won’t ignore that. But we’re also doing a lot of things well, certainly as well as we did last season.”

Southampton – Sheffield United prediction

Blades have been very unlucky this season while Saints got the rub of the green with a late penalty to beat Brighton. That doesn’t mean United can head south and handle its business with Danny Ings and Co., but it won’t hurt. Southampton 1-1 Sheffield United.
