Sheff Utd v Fulham: Pick of the stats

  • Published

Here are the key facts and figures before Saturday's Premier League fixture between Sheffield United and Fulham.

  • Sheffield United have won just one of their five Premier League games against Fulham, though are unbeaten in both at Bramall Lane.

  • The Whites are looking to complete their first league double over the Blades since 2017-18 in the Championship, and they have never beaten United twice in the same top-flight campaign.

  • Fulham have won four of their past six league games, as many as in their previous 15. Four of their 11 Premier League victories this season have been by a margin of at least three goals, their joint-most in a top-flight season.

  • Sheffield United are just the second side in the top four tiers of English football to have conceded five or more goals in three successive home league games after Rochdale in Division 3 North in April 1932. Moreover, in a side's first 14 home games of a season in the Football League, only Aston Villa in the top flight in 1935-36 (43) have conceded more than the Blades' 42.

  • Since the start of February, Fulham's Rodrigo Muniz has scored more Premier League goals than anyone else (seven).
