Sheffield United's four-game winning streak was ended when they drew 2-2 with 10 men at Coventry on Saturday but they remain level on points with leaders Leeds and second-placed Sunderland.

The Blades welcome an Oxford side with just one win in 11 games (D5 L5) who will be looking to bounce back from a bruising 6-2 defeat at home to Middlesbrough.

  • This is the first league meeting between Sheffield United and Oxford United since the 2016-17 League One campaign, with the Blades winning both games (2-1 home, 3-2 away).
  • Oxford have lost nine of their last 12 away league games against Sheffield United (W2 D1) and have never kept a clean sheet at Bramall Lane in 13 attempts.
  • Sheffield United have won each of their last six home league games without conceding; the Blades last enjoyed a longer winning run in March 2019 (run of eight).
  • No side has won fewer Championship points on the road this season than Oxford (2 鈥 D2 L5), failing to score in their last two such games.
  • Sheffield United have lost only one of their last seven Championship games against newly promoted sides (W4 D2), keeping a clean sheet in both such games this season (1-0 v Derby, 0-0 v Portsmouth).
