Swansea City have a massive task at hand when they welcome in-form Sheffield United in the EFL Championship.

However, the home side will take a lot of comfort from their last match. After ending their winless run in their last game, Swansea will be eager to maintain that positive momentum when they take to the pitch on Tuesday night.

Sheffield United are the in-form team in the EFL Championship, hence their position at the top of the standings is not a surprise. The Blades are sitting at the summit with 17 points from eight matches. They have incredibly won four of their last five matches. Meanwhile, Swansea are languishing at the other end of the table by occupying the 19th spot with nine points from eight matches. However, they can take a lot of comfort from the win over Queens Park Rangers in their last game.

Following their crucial victory over Queens Park Rangers in their last match, Swansea City are unlikely to make many changes to a winning team. Hence, most of the players who started that game will be expected to start again on Tuesday night. However, they have to make do without the injured Joel Latibeaudiere and Liam Cullen. Liam Walsh is also set to join them on the sidelines. Sheffield United’s injury crisis is a lot severe among the two sides. With Jack O’Connell and Jack Robinson already set to be out for a while, John Fleck’s injury last month makes it more complicated for them. Besides, the likes of Billy Sharp, Adam Davies, and Enda Stevens among others are also major doubts for the Tuesday night clash.
Swansea City possible line-up: Benda, Naughton, Wood, Cabango, Manning, Sorinola, Allen, Grimes, Paterson, Piroe, Cooper
Sheffield United possible line-up: Foderingham, Ahmedhodzic, Egan, Norrington-Davies, Baldock, Berge, Norwood, Doyle, Lowe, McBurnie, Ndiaye
