Match Facts
This is the third FA Cup tie between Sheffield United and Brighton – the Seagulls won the first one in the first round in 1921-22, while the Blades progressed in a third round replay in 1986-87.
Brighton are winless in seven games against Sheffield United (D3 L4, all in the league) since winning 2-1 at Bramall Lane back in January 2005 in a Championship encounter.
Sheffield United have progressed from each of their last four FA Cup fourth round ties since losing in a replay to Preston back in 2014-15.
Under Roberto De Zerbi, Brighton are averaging 2.8 goals per game in the FA Cup (17 in 6 games), netting at least four goals in three of six games under the Italian. The Seagulls have won all three away games in the FA Cup since he took charge, their joint-longest away winning run in the competition, along with a three-game run ending in December 1932.
Pascal Groß has been involved in five goals in his last six FA Cup appearances (1 goal, 4 assists), assisting two of Brighton’s four goals in the third round against Stoke City.
