Tottenham v Sheff Utd

Tottenham vs Sheffield United Preview

Tottenham will play host to Sheffield United at their Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday afternoon with the hosts looking to pick up where they left off just before the international when they registered an emphatic 5-2 win away from home at newly promoted Burnley.

Tottenham now return to their home surroundings for this Saturday's clash with another newly promoted side from the Championship, Sheffield United, with Spurs going in search of a fourth league win on the trot under new manager, Ange Postecoglou, after making an impressive start to this new Premier League campaign.

After picking up a point in an opening day of the season 2-2 draw away from home at Brentford, Tottenham have since clicked into gear by winning their next three matches on the trot as Spurs have gained valuable wins against Manchester United 2-0, Bournemouth 2-0 and the aforementioned 5-2 win at Turf Moor against Burnley.

Depending on how Manchester City fare against West Ham, all three points for Tottenham could see Postecoglou's side move to the top of the Premier League table and having won seven of their last 10 home games in the English top flight, Tottenham look in good shape to take the spoils here.

Sheffield United have had to endure a tough start to their new campaign upon their return to the Premier League as The Blades have managed to pick up just one point from their opening four games which was courtesy of a 2-2 draw at home with fellow strugglers, Everton, just before the international break.

Sheffield United had previously made a disastrous start to this new season as the visitors slipped to three defeats on the trot which saw the Yorkshire club dealt losses against Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest and Manchester City but whilst the latter result was expected, the former two defeats were against teams that Paul Heckingbottom's side may have fancied picking up points from.

Despite achieving automatic promotion from the Championship at the end of last season, Sheffield United's results away from home have been fairly unconvincing as The Blades have captured just three wins from their previous nine outings on the road and this sequence also includes five defeats as well, which makes this upcoming trip to north London a potentially tough one for the visitors.

Tottenham v Sheffield United Verdict

Tottenham will be eager to hit the ground running after the international break and assert their authority over newcomers, Sheffield United, and with winning momentum along with home advantage behind them, Spurs look set to take all three points here on Saturday afternoon to not only extend their unbeaten start to the season but to also pick up a fourth win on the trot.
